BOXING DAY
Traditionally, boxing day was a holiday for servants they received Christmas boxes from their masters. They usually had the day off so they joined their families and also offered them gifts.
The first gift was given in a form of a baby. This baby is the only baby whose birth is celebrated globally; this is because of the significance of His birth.
Babies bring joy to parents, after nine or more months, there is delivery which is a relief to mothers. Jesus Christ was gifted to us as a sign of hope to the sinful world. He came to reconcile man and God and His purpose was fulfilled.
His birth was anticipated as it had been prophesied by prophets, are you expecting any gift this Christmas? Is someone expecting a gift from you? If yes! Then that's good because gifts are acts of love and receiving it means you have loved ones.
As we continue to celebrate Christmas, please remember the first gift given to us from God our father and maker who loves us genuinely.
The gift from God was our Lord Jesus Christ and he's Love.
