Thanksgiving: Reason For The Season

10. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. - Luke 2:10-11

Today is popularly called Christmas Day. Though no one knew the exact day Jesus was born unto this earth, but virtually everyone do celebrate December 25 as His birth-day. It's has been like that since over 300 years A.D.

The reason for this season is Jesus. We should offer thanksgiving to God for sending His only begotten Son, Jesus into this earth. Human race has hope because Jesus came to save us.

One of the ways we show thanksgiving in this season is to show love to one another especially the less privileged around us. Our Thanksgiving should be love-filled. Share the good news, tell people about Jesus and why He came to the earth.

The birth of Jesus is a cause for celebration no doubt, but more importantly, it's a reason for Thanksgiving. No Jesus, No Hope.

Joy to the World because the Lord has come. Be thankful to God for sending Jesus. Show the Love of God to someone less privileged.

This is my prayer for you; the coming of Christ to the world is to rekindle hope and bring Joy to lives, I pray that your life will experience the Joy of the Lord this season and beyond. Every hopeless case becomes hopeful today by the reason of the season.

It's a beautiful day, it's a great day. Top of the morning to you. Merry Christmas to you beloved and do have a thankful celebration.
