As the year ends, a few Christmas musings

While it's the season to be jolly, I just wanted to remind myself and you as well on the finer aspects of what Christmas really stands for. Something I love encouraging my friends from other faiths is to say the word Christmas and not Xmas. You can't remove Christ (aka Jesus) out of Christmas because the holiday season would be incomplete without him. So I encourage you to take time out (take another second or two) when you wish people a Merry Christmas to type out the whole word and give meaning to this season of peace.

Below is a small composition from me, for you and your family.

It's the time to pray and reflect
On how each of our decisions affect.

It's the time to be noble and kind
To make peace with those who've left us behind.

It's the time for sharing and giving
More than the gifts, cast your eyes towards those less deserving.

It's the time for hope, especially for those who have none
When all seems lost, remember - you're not yet done.

It's the time for peace to reign in our hearts
For our children, but more so for the storm to pass.

Don't wait for life and situations to worsen
Have faith and you'll witness God through another person.

Have a Christ filled Christmas and a Blessed 2015!
