The Gift of Christmas is JESUS!


 The Gift of Christmas is JESUS!

 Christmas is a time of love!

Christmas takes on its full meaning in Jesus.

Mary inherited love.

Mary, our heavenly mother, said YES to God

Through the Angel Gabriel.

She takes on the responsibility of carrying in her womb

Emmanuel, God with us, the Alpha and Omega.

 

Christmas is a time of giving!

When Love chooses you, Hope comes.

It’s the time of Love, the time of Hope.

Mary rejoices because she has said YES so

A new humanity may come into being.

Solidarity is set in motion with her cousin Elisabeth.

She bets on Love because she believes in it.

 

Christmas is a time for inner peace!

Mary keeps all events in her heart.

A silence filled with love. Faith is at the rendezvous.

Mary gives herself entirely to Joseph in this adventure,

Which is not an easy task.

She looks at her son in the crib and hopes for everything.

Hope is her strength because she believes in it.

 

Christmas is a time for joy!

Happiness settles in our hearts.

The visit of the Magi conveys this royal joy.

The stars are aligned.

The Star of Bethlehem indicates Jesus ‘royalty.

To walk in hope, the holy family and

Magi set out again by another road.

Is this not a path of hope?

 

Christmas, from yesterday to today,

Brings us back to basics.

The essential is Love. God is love.

As Christians, past and present

We have inherited love.

For over two thousand years

We have been passing on love as an inheritance.

All we have to offer this Christmas:

It’s Jesus! The Prince of Peace!

Through Him, with Him and in Him

We keep the light of hope burning

For time and eternity.

 

In this Christmas season

We are clothed in Christ’s Light.

Apart from God, Light of the nations,

The kingdom of justice, peace and love is doomed.

We say with faith, Jesus is our strength and our hope.

 

I wish you Peace and Joy of Christmas!
