It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!

By: Nancy Abiera

As the song implies, “Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year!”
Yes, it is as I had experienced it myself. However, for some may not be the case. An exception may even question, “Is it really?” as some would ask without saying. . .
Take the story of a teenager taking her own life on Christmas Eve…a dying person crying out for hope to live a few more years… an orphan wishing for adopting parents… a separated man or woman wanting the spouse and children back… These are just a few or some of the people you and I may have come across. It is sad as these situations happens more and are highlighted even during these seasons of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year.
I believe we have options to choose each day not just on Christmas as wonderful or awful. If I may remind us all what CHRISTMAS means:
C. Christ Jesus from
H. Heaven
R. Reaching Down
I. In coming to earth
S. Supernaturally in
T. Time
M. Moving Mankind for
A. All to receive
S. Salvation
Without Christ Jesus in our lives, we become lifeless, hopeless, loveless, joyless, faithless, kind-less peace-less, patience-less, gentle-less, etc. ending only with MAS.
M. Miserable
A. Annoying
S. Stress
We associate Christmas as a time of giving gifts to each other. It is Jesus’ birthday but seldom we think or give gift to Jesus. We expect to receive gifts from Him instead. No wonder we may end up miserable.
With Jesus, we receive
M. Miracles
A. Anointing &
S. Super Power
With Jesus, we give
M. More Love
A. Abundant Blessings
S. Supernatural
Healings to ourselves and others thereby giving glory and honor to His Name.
Christmas preparation does not start with “Black Friday” shopping but remembering what Jesus did for us on “Good Friday”. He died for us to have life. He came from heaven to earth so that we who are here on earth may experience God’s glory in heaven.
Let us choose to make this Christmas and everyday be like Christmas as the “most wonderful time of the year.
Let us all open our hearts and make room for Jesus… Sing “Let every heart… prepare Him room…And heaven and nature sing…” Moreover, let’s share Jesus to others. This will definitely make Christmas the most wonderful time of the year.
May we all have a blessed, peaceful and full of love and wonders this Christmas and every day.
Always “Choose On A Bright Side”.
I love you readers with the love of the Lord yet the Lord loves you the most.
Smile and be a blessing!
