Seeking God in the manger

Seeking God in the manger

By Jen Avisado

 

Merry Christmas! Christmas, a season that transcends mere festivities, has always held a special place in my heart. Beyond the glittering lights, the melodic carols, and the exchange of gifts lies a deeper essence that resonates with the spirit of joy, compassion, and togetherness.

 

In a world that often rushes past in a whirlwind of tasks and responsibilities, Christmas offers a respite—a chance to pause and reflect on the significance of connection. It's a season that encourages us to be present, to appreciate the people around us, and to express gratitude for the relationships that enrich our lives.

 

Christmas is more than a date on the calendar—it's a tapestry of emotions, traditions, and shared moments that weave together the fabric of our lives. It prompts us to reflect on the past year, appreciate the present, and look forward to the possibilities that the future holds. As we exchange greetings of "Merry Christmas," let us not only wish for joy and peace but actively contribute to creating a world where these sentiments extend beyond the holiday season, becoming a year-round reality for all.

 

What’s your plan for Christmas? Do poor people have a spot in your plan?
