Why Should The People Stop Asking Gifts at Christmas?

The scripture is  definite in expressing that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Is this particular passage in the Bible being misunderstood or utterly neglected by everyone who believes the Bible contains the word of God?

Christmas doesn't mean anything else except the coming of the Messiah as foretold by the prophets of old. Isaiah prophesied several hundred years that a son is given and He could be called as the Prince of Peace, among others. A heavenly messenger had awakened the shepherds on the field from their sleep and told then where the babe in a humble clothes was born. And also a mighty star had guided the three wise men to where the King of Kings was laid and they offered the greatest gifts of all.

Those people offered their humble selves and adored the baby Jesus whom the Heavenly Father sent to the world to save the sinners. It is a perfect gift the Father ever given to the people of the world, who come short of the glory of God. Jesus Christ Himself died on the cross to prove on how He is obedient to the will of His Father. Now the rest were a history handed down from one generation to another.

How Christmas Would Lead to World Peace

It is very untiring and even deafening to always hearing this Biblical phrase "on earth peace, good will toward men..." (Luke 2:14, KJV) The people are always longing for peace since time immemorial. But peace is elusive but hope keeps on hoping to never fail. Christmas is there to remind us every December, every year. Even everyone would like to have Christmas everyday.

JOYOUS CHRISTMAS SEASON

"When Christmas comes, there is always joy in our hearts. There is joy when we give something small for it has big impact to the receiver. There is joy in our emotion and on the way we feel after helping those in need." This a portion of my humble message during our Coronation of Mr. & Ms. Yuletide 2014 of our school, Balabag Elem. School.

PERFECT GIFT for CHRISTMAS

Christmas is a season of the year that simply reminding us the perfect gift which our Heavenly Father has given to all mankind, kindred, tongues and nations. That is through Jesus Christ, our Father in heaven unfeigned love is perfectly shown for everyone of us sinners. With Jesus we would be redeemed from our sins.

Sophieluscious First Birthday Party Ever

We were surprised for one of our 8 grandchildren by her spiritual actuation of an advanced child as she celebrated her first year birthday January 10.

Attended by her closed relatives and extended family, the birthday party though simple, but memorable ever.

The party started with me giving the prayer and the blessing of the foods. I invoked the presence of the Spirit of the Lord to be with us, to lead us to make this first birthday celebration of our granddaughter, Inday Sophie to be successful and full of fun and enthusiasm among the kids and even among the members of the family.

I did ask the Lord to bless her of the wisdom of the Lord that she may grow up being obedient to the Lord's commandment as she does by being obedient to her parents, grandparents, and others whom she is subject to follow for the good of everybody.

The Greatest Gift I Give to my Parents

Christmas is just around the corner. I already hear Christmas songs over the radio especially early in the morning. Everyone at home is so excited for they're expecting a party, exchange gifts or gift-giving may be held.

Kids are so happy in this month of December. They're expecting to receiving gifts from their parents, from their godparents.

To borrow a line from the song popularized by the late world-known singer, Michael Jackson, which says "people making lists/ buying special gifts", the people all over the world are beginning to do this.

Thus, they're making a long lists of things to buy for their Christmas presents to be given to their loved ones, relatives, friends, and business associates and clients.
