It's Christmas time!

Jingle bells, Jingle Bells, jingle all the way..!

Soo. It's December 2nd now and I already opend my second window on my advent calendar..
That means ,it's time to go back home and spend some time with the family.
I've been thinking about christmas presents recently and I actually figured out that we don't really need them.
Christmas presents have been considered as a must-have for christmas.
Most ppl forget the actual reason we sit together and celebrate the Nativity.
As I went to the church last sunday I went through the importance of Christmas by myself.
I arrived at the conclusion that we'd celebrate Christmas as a festivity of love.
Let's spread love! There's never enough love around us in today's world.
While we read these phrases, around the world are currently dying a few thousand of people due to hunger or poverty.
However. We'd be happy about what god gave us and should appreciate it as much as possible!

And that's why I did a little research and selected the Christmas Story. The Gospel of Luke.


The Birth of Jesus
1In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2(This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3And everyone went to his own town to register.

4So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. 6While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
The Shepherds and the Angels
8And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ[a] the Lord. 12This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."

13Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
14"Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."

15When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about."

16So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
