So Christmas is here again!

So Christmas is here again. And as usual, there shall be the common call in churches not to lose focus on the true meaning of Christmas. The commercial aspect is celebrated by everyone, whether Christians or not. Partying and giving of gifts are the main focus for these people. But we as Christians, apart from giving gifts, we need to remember why we celebrate Christmas. Apart from making resolutions and promises in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, what have we done? Have we done our part to contribute to a better world? Celine Dion in her song "So this is Christmas" tells us what Christmas is all about. "For black and for white, for yellow and red ones, let's stop the fight".



So this is Christmas

And what have you done?
Another year over
A new one just begun.

And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear.

And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The war is so wrong

And so Happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let’s stop all the fight

A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear.

And so this is Christmas
And what have we done?
Another year over
A new one just begun

And so Happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
And what have we done?
Another year over
A new one just begun.

         WISHING EVERYONE A MEANINGFUL AND BLESSED CHRISTMAS
