Essence of Christmas

Christmas is a holiday mostly celebrated by Christians on December, 25 every year to commemorate the birth of Jesus. It is exactly nine months after Jesus was conceived, the day of winter solstice of the ancient Roman calendar and one of various ancient winter festivals. During Christmas people exchange gifts, attend church services, eat special food, listen to classical music and decorate their houses with Christmas trees, lights, garlands, mist lands, nativity scenes etc. Up to today Christmas still remains the most celebrated holiday in the world.

Its importance and significance to Christians is of great value. This is a day that Christians can’t afford to compromise because it reminds them of their only hope of life that the birth of Jesus brought to them. In order to show how they appreciate and love Jesus Christians celebrates his birth. Although nominally a Christian holiday Christmas is also widely celebrated by many non-Christians. If there were some holiday Christians would wish to celebrate every day and every month then it would be definitely Christmas, because Christmas is all about happiness and joy; it defines the foundation of our belief. Everybody who celebrates Christmas will agree with me upon the thought that it is a day no one wants to miss. Christmas as a holiday has of course its special moments. One of them is Christmas Eve, the night when Jesus came into this world. So every year we celebrate Christmas to show to God that his birth and sacrifices is worth it. So I thanks God for who I am now.

The baby born on this holiday will bring extra joy to the family. The baby is considered to be a blessing to the family and is usually named after Jesus. God is good all the times.-
