Reflection of Christmas 2020
Christmas this year is totally different from the previous years. Since corona-19 hit all countries, of course it is not that easy to hold gathering. Schools, churches, any entertaining places are closed, and moreover I'm single this year HAHAHA PERFECT!. However if we ponder upon it deeper, it instead brings back the core of Christmas.
How many of us when think of Christmas, we instead tend to think about the traditions and linked it to long holiday, Christmas tree, family, gifts, new dresses, big feast, or further Santa Clause as the guest star?
Christmas starts with CHRIST
We forget the core of Christmas that The LORD came down from heaven to the wicked world in THE MOST ORDINARY & HUMBLE WAY ?
and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. (Luke 2:7)
As parents we must prepare the best things for our baby, from the place, where we will give birth, room, meals, and another baby equipment to be fulfilled. However The Prince of Heaven left the splendor of Heaven to come here born in a manger, in quietness, to dying & redeeming the sinners. He truly emptied Himself to the fullest for the wicked like us.
(Philippians 2:7) rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness.
(John 1:11) He came to his own people, and even they rejected him.
Modern Christmas always associates with glamour celebrations, family gathering, gifts, big feast, we forget that it was the time that the Father had to let His only Son to come to the broken world, dying and redeem the broken people like us.
(John 3:16) For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
I know this year is tough. We heard so many losses throughout the year. So, this, I will share valuable lessons from my life lesson this year especially the meaning of Christmas to me.
Christmas is about Jesus.
It does not deal with tradition nor its ornaments.
It reminds the hope for the hopeless.
It reminds the Light in the Darkness.
(Luke 2:10-11) But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.
let our heart filled with His presence alone, sinking into His Grace & His Joy.
Amen
MERY CHRISTMAS 2020 & HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021.
