Christ-Mass

Christmas or Christmas Day

(Old English: Crīstesmæsse, meaning "Christ'sMass") is an annual festival commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ

One of the most celebrated holidays of the year is upon us.  Christmas has been a long held tradition among many households.  Gifts, family gatherings, and the rustle and bustle to make the season merry. But let's not forgot why we have this day to begin with.  It is with the birth of Christ Jesus that we celebrate.  His birth foretold by three wise men, traveling far by the stars.  With only "stars" to guide them, it may make one believe in the science and use of astrology itself.  But to find him in a manger, with animals, may make one wonder that even then, the richest of kings failed to see the true meaning of his birth.

His birth has brought so much power into the world that even our time system all around the world is based on his birth.  BC signifies "before Christ".  A measurement that many countries and societies still use today.  What makes the Christ Jesus so special and if he was, why was he born in a manger of all places?

The story depicts someone with humble beginnings.  It's not in the richness of the wealth of those in high places on earth, but with the richness of those glories brought from heaven itself.  Our most wisest teacher, the one who was not afraid to speak the truth, the one that told us of our salvation and that he was a son of God.

This season may we all reach for our most high.  Our Christ self, our heavenly father and thank him for the blessings in our lives as well as our lessons.  May we think of Christ Jesus and the life that he led, what he gave us with his suffering, and the ultimate price he paid to bring us his teachings.  Many people have tried to change his words, change the meaning of why he was here, and hide the true power of God our father present within Christ himself, but the coming of Christ is again upon us.  In each and every one of us, beckoning us back home to the place where we all once were.  Simple and wise, untainted and innocent.  Our true natures, our Christ selves and the spirit that lives forever.  

Let all egos pass to the wayside. as we celebrate Christ and his very presence in all of our lives.  We are all the children of God.  All made by his works and it was Jesus who was the very man who made us aware of the might and power of this almighty true eternal king.

When Jesus was asked why he came, he told them it wasn't to bring peace on earth, but to bring the sword of truth.  Let that truth be sung unto the mountains.  When asked how to pray, he replied "The Lords Prayer".  Eternal to the father, let his will be done in your life as it is in heaven and watch your suffering of today become your tomorrow.  May all people, everywhere, have a very blessed and thankful Christmas Day. <3 div="">
