My Christmas Greetings

Photos credit: Alan Mercer
In few days time the entire Catholic world will celebrate this one important religious occasion of the year. It is the best time to make amends, share love and most of all to be grateful for the life we are experiencing.

When the child was born in Bethlehem, the humanity has been saved by the grace. MARY the virgin mother and JOSEPH the carpenter rejoiced when the prophesied saviour came to earth  with them as chosen blessed parents - THE HOLY FAMILY.




Like all of us, he has encountered challenges up until he took the cross as his THRONE. He was not perfect as a growing person and yet became the epitome of LOVE and COMPASSION.

He was betrayed but he chose to FORGIVE. The pain he received was too much for the little love that everyone is capable to GIVE.

Jesus Christ either being a person or God is more than just a character in the Bible. He was one of the greatest teachers the world ever have.




Materialism has eventually changed the true meaning of Christmas. Let us all remember that Jesus was born in the MANGER.

He redeemed the world through his mercy. He was powerful but humbled by our sins.

LOVE is an all-year round and lifetime celebration. It is our HOPE as individuals regardless of beliefs to achieve WORLD PEACE by emanating the good deeds of JESUS CHRIST.

Let us be reminded that as we celebrate this season, the other side of the world is grieving from loss of innocent lives due to war. Let us remember the people of SYRIA by including them in our PRAYERS.

To my friends, relatives and ALL , and on behalf of those who try to break the boundaries of humanity through RESPECT and UNDERSTANDING allow me to reach your hearts with my greetings. MERRY CHRISTMAS and have meaningful days ahead.
