The meaning of Christmas

I remember growing up in a family where the spirit of Christmas was alive.Where as a family we'll take a well deserved holiday just in celebration of the birth of Christ.As years went by I have noticed that the spirit is surely dying,families no longer go an extra mile of slaughtering sheeps,roasting turkeys,gammons and opening presents.I remember Christmas eve,my friend and I would stay up all night waiting to see the stars dance(it was just a myth LOL).

I often ask myself what went wrong,what killed the spirit of celebrating the birth of our Saviour?Was it when people started calling it Xmas?Was it cause of finances?If someone can come to my aid and give me an answer.This was one day Christian and non-christian alike have a feast,exchange presents,sing carols,decorate their homes.I urge every Christian to bring alive the birth of Christ,to celebrate Him as the day He was born the heavens rejoiced so is the earth for a Saviour came.

The meaning of Christmas:
C_hrist is God's ultimate gift of love and your free ticket to.........
H_eaven.You are therefore............

I pray that everyone will have a blessed Christmas and revive the spirit of Christmas once more.Teach our kids the real meaning of Christmas so that they pass the culture to their children as well.

Arrive alive.Kuli loves you
