Jesus Christ is Lord!
We live in a society that glorifies individuality. We demand our rights ahead of our responsibilities; service instead of serving; gratification above sacrifice. Society glorifies the unholy trinity : Me, myself and I. Christmas is a call for us to stop being immature and start gaining perspective by diverting the focus from ourselves to God and His perfect love for us.
Christmas is the epitome of love so perfect - so humble that He arrive at a manger; so demonstrative that He chose to walk amongst us sinners; so graceful that He is able to touch our hearts; so sacrificial that He died a criminal's death to redeem you and I into the Kingdom of God; so merciful that He will write-off our sins if we choose to believe. Christmas is God's best gift to mankind. We are saved for good works, not by good works. There is nothing more than we could do to make God love us more. There is nothing so lacking in us that out of God's gracious reach. That is why it is called a gift...we have just have to receive it with childlike faith.
Cheers to you Lord Jesus. We glorify you, and may our worship be a sweet scent that pleases you. We thank you for your grace in this lifetime, and we look forward to the day that we shall meet face-to-face.
