I am curious how would Santa Claus
answer me if I were to interrogate him, “What’s the real essence of Christmas
and where can we find it? Does it mean just having parties, gifts, new shoes,
toys and plenty of money?
For me, Christmas is not about the
small c’s which are cash, clothes, cards and also claus. It is about the Christ
who was born in a manger. Christmas is the time to rejoice for having Christ in
our lives. It is also time for giving
and sharing what we have and forgiving the people who have sinned against
us. But nowadays, many of us have
forgotten the real meaning of Christmas. Some children grow up having in mind
that Santa Claus is real and he’s the reason for Christmas. Many are busy
buying their new shoes and clothes, some are preparing for parties, while few
are busy praying to God. We have
forgotten that Christmas is for CHRIST and not for this fat Santa.
True essence of Christmas can only
be found in our hearts. Christmas glow starts to spread when the humble hearts
forgive and the kind hearts give.
