It’s just about Christmas again! The season of love, giving, family / friends reunions, family dinners etc. Unfortunately, the significant meaning of Christmas is slowly fading away. I was at service last week when the Pastor presented a point to ponder; “What does ‘Noel’ means?” Christmas in a sense has become somewhat of a routine he says, we often sing these songs during the season not really knowing what they really mean. It struck me then; perhaps you all know what it means or maybe right now you’re doing a search as you read this. Honestly I’ve never thought of it until last week Sunday. This lead me to share my reasoning with you all, hoping that this Christmas 2010 will not be celebrated as of routine and tradition but rather us being fully conscious of our actions in everything we do this season. Everything! Whatever it may be going to service, going to the club, party, giving, helping. Just stop and reflect on what the season is all about.
Have a wonderful holiday!
Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel.
