Merry Christmas!

   Merry Christmas and Joyeux Noël! I've had a great day as today is the first time in quite a while that I've spent the entire day with my family and it has been great! I am truly blessed with a awesome family. Today was also somewhat bittersweet as its my last Christmas living at home before uni next year. Scary times!
 
   Christmas is so commercialised nowadays and the true reason behind the season has been lost. Let's not forget what it says in the Bible:
 
 "She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."- Matthew 1:21.
 
   Christmas marks the birth of Jesus Christ, God's beloved and only son who was born to save the world. It's not about Santa, eating, TV or posting pictures on Facebook of the many presents you received. Or even worse, complaining that you received something you didn't like. Just be happy and thankful for the fact that you're alive to see another Christmas. Not everyone is that lucky.
 
  Happy holidays!
