I love Christmas because Christmas is about love. It is about finding a perfect gift that will
make others light up with joy and excitement.
It is about sending warm wishes to friends, families, and
neighbors. It is about sharing and
helping others. It is about excitement and
anticipation for what is to come. It is about warm hearts and warm
feelings. It is about family and getting
together with those we care about most.
It is about unity and harmony.
The most powerful force in the world is love. Love can motivate us to do incredible things,
to achieve remarkable feats, to do what otherwise would be unimaginable. Love changes hearts, and changes minds. Love mends relationships and brings the
entire human family together. Love
squashes ill feelings and replaces them with the most desirable ones. Love pushes us to be our best selves.
From a religious perspective the story of Christmas is all
about love. It is about a Father sending
his son, and allowing him to be sacrificed for the sake of others. It is about a king being born in the most
humble of circumstances. It is about a son
being willing to do whatever his father asks him to do. And it is about a savior and redeemer who
willingly suffers and dies for others. Indeed the Christmas story recounts the
greatest demonstration of love in the history of mankind.
Love requires work and sacrifice, but as we allow it to fill
our hearts, it will change us for good. Love
transcends all differences, ills, misunderstandings, and hurt feelings. Love has the power to make everything ok,
better, wonderful. Without love, we are
nothing.
If we are struggling in life, if we face a challenge that
seems insurmountable, if we feel unsatisfied or unhappy, then we must simply
love. Love will heal all and will help
us all to overcome any circumstance or difficulty we face. Love will help us be successful in anything
we do and fill us with joy and satisfaction. If we want to be a great leader, if we want to
influence others, if we want to make a difference in the world, we must love others.
I pray that love will fill each of our hearts this Christmas
season. May you and your loved ones be
blessed during this time and throughout all the year!
