AMIDST the tinsel and the turkey and the rush and crush, let us not forget the reason for the season.
We celebrate the supernatural birth of one whose sole purpose in life was to die for the benefit of mankind.
He came not to start a religion but to show us how to live the life as a winner and not a loser. His message was simple, learn of me, love God and your neighbour, and you will be blessed in this life and the next.
It is indeed joy to the world, but only to His followers. Many members of His own family were willing after his resurrection to lay down their lives for this cause. That alone is a miracle and speaks volumes for His authenticity.
W Mawston, Rushyford.
