The two great fears that characterise our age are loneliness and despair. We have actively filled life with things that paradoxically leave us empty and disillusioned. Notice how we get what we want then don't want what we got! we compare ourselves with others and find everything seems relative. We perennially crave for 'something more' hoping that 'the next best thing' would really satisfy. |

The Virgin giving birth to a child is a fulfilment of promise concerning the coming of Messiah and the roots can be traced back to Isa.7:14. Without denying the sacrifice done by Mary, let us examine the sacrifice of Joseph in the birth of Jesus. |

I struggle getting gifts for loved ones especially at Christmas. The difficulty lies in selecting the best possible gift. My predicament is threefold: First, they already may have what I’m planning to get. Second, they may not value or use it. Third, given they really need it, I worry if I have the means to pay for it! Have you faced a similar dilemma? The issue is whether a gift can be ‘afforded’ and then ‘received’ with appreciation. |

There was Mary the mother and there was Joseph to whom she was betrothed. Plain and simple folks, even as you and I. There were shepherds – the first Christmas congregation. Humble folks who lived close to nature. The earth, the carpet for their feet, the heavens their umbrella. No element of extravaganza; only the simplicity of the divine. In this article, the contents of the mystery, has been furnished under five shades of exposition. |

Why the grandest news of Christ’s coming was first announced to lowly shepherds watching their flock by night? Why not proclaim the arrival of the ‘Prince of Peace’ to King Herod and his powerful authorities in the royal palace? Or, share the Advent of Messiah to the high priest and theologically learned leaders in the temple? Why not to all the family relatives of Mary and Joseph? Why would an angelic host bring the glorious message of Christmas: glad tiding of great joy for all people, to lonely low-class common labourers in the fields outside the city? |
