Giving Something Special

Christmas is the day when God sent His son Jesus down to Earth to save us. God gave us something special, someone so close to His heart, because He loves us. So now, on our part, why not we spread the love to others too whether it be our family, friends, neighbours, or even complete strangers?



T
here's no need to shower others with big, expensive presents to show our love. Sometimes the sentimental, original and truly heartfelt gifts are the most valuable of all, regardless whether they cost a dime. If a loved one feels upset and down, simply lending a ready ear can mean a lot to that person. While you may be under the impression you can't whip up the solution to their problems out of thin air, being the person that they can talk to is worth much more.




Sharing God's Word! The Bible is full of inspirational, motivating stories about how God performed miracles through His people, and Jesus Himself. There are endless verses we read that can be applied and help us face different challenges in life too.

The Word of God is a Person. When you read it, do you see words, or do you see Him?
Do you share words with others, or do you share God with them?

Because some wish to hear the word of God, others wish to receive it.
Time is another invaluable and untradable gift from God. So try to make a little time in your busy schedule to spend time with people who feel lonely and think that no one out there cares about them. No one can live in this world without being loved. So spend what time you have brightening up someone's day.

- (Acts 20:35) In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'
- (ROM. 12:11-13) Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.

Count your blessings, name them one by one, Count your blessings, see what God hath done!

How often have we heard that quote? To count our blessings, not our curses. But why must we be proven time and time again instead by the quote:

"You never really realize how much you love someone until they're gone."

Just by looking around you you're going to 'see what God hath done'. The sibling who just walked past you. He or she can drive you up the wall sometimes, but you know you love them. Cuddle up into your comfortable bed, and realize that millions of other people around the world are rotting on the cold streets. Every day, make it a habit to thank God the moment you start the day. Thank God for your blessings than complain to Him about your curses. We should really be grateful for these blessings.

We Christians are to love all year round, and setting apart this Christmas season is an extra special time and opportunity to share our blessings with others. That's what brings the greatest joy in giving.

So have yourself a Blessed Christmas,
CF SMKSU

The True Meaning of Christmas

Many times when we think of Christmas, the first thing that pops into our head is...

Presents!



Santa Claus!



Snow!




A sparkling Christmas tree!




We're less likely to visualize a little baby in a manger underneath a bright, shining star. Less likely to remember the birth of our Saviour.



The historic record of the birth of Christ can be found in Matthew 1:18-25 and Luke 2:1-20. Unlike any other baby, the one born that night in Bethlehem was unique in all of the course of history. He was not created by a human father and mother. He had a heavenly pre-existence (John 1:1-3, 14). He is God, the Son — Creator of the Universe (Philippians 2:5-11). And he came down to Earth in humanly form.

Now let's scratch our heads and wonder: Why would God do such a thing? Why would he come as a baby, instead of immediately appearing in all his power and majesty? Why make himself a true man and live among us, when he already knows full well how terribly he would be treated?

It was LOVE! It was necessary, if you are to be saved!

Of course, much of the very popularity of Christmas nowadays, especially in the West, is due to the commercial promotion of the holiday. Christmas has become a marketing opportunity to hold Mega-sales and rake in the customers. Coax people into getting into the
'holiday' spirit by buying expensive watches and jewelry for loved ones. People feel that it's not Christmas unless their homes are decorated with Christmas trees, lights and ornaments and there's a delicious smell of roasting turkey wafting from the oven. It's all very well to do this in the cheerful spirit of the season, but do we stress and worry ourselves out so much over all these petty, superficial little details that we fail to see the big picture? The reason why Christmas even exists?

As for the commercialization of Christmas, is that honoring God? Many a time advertisements choose to replace the word 'Christmas' with 'Xmas' or 'Holiday Season' in order to draw attention away from the truth that is Christmas at all. And what will be the price if we sell out our society and souls and forget the one who came to earth to live and die for us?

You see, the real reason for Christmas is to celebrate and remember the birth of God in the flesh, our Messiah, our Saviour - Jesus Christ. He is the true meaning of Christmas! All the values we learn about giving, sharing and loving one another - these are things that we should be doing all year round, not just during a certain season.

These are things that we do because
We Love Jesus!


So spend this wonderful season remembering our Christ Saviour's great love to us. The Saviour who was born in a forlorn little manger to show us how humble He was willing to be for us.
