Christmas for sale

              It's December again and it's Christmas time! They say Christmas is a season to love, to give, to forgive and to thank God for all the blessings we received. But it can be Christmas  everyday. Everyday we can love, we can give, we can forgive and we can thank God. Christmas is for children. Especially for the street children. As of now, there are lots of street children. They ask for a coin to buy some food to eat. At their young age they experience lots of problems in their lives. Lots of problems that they will encounter as they grow up.
              
             Every December, I and my family are busy preparing for Christmas. We start to put Christmas tree and Christmas lights. We start to put decorations on our house, We also start to buy gifts for our loved ones and 'inaanaks". We prepare delicious and special foods to eat. And we do not forget to go to church. Every Christmas all the family members are there, we laugh together, we eat together and we make sure that the quality time will not be wasted. That's how we celebrate Christmas. And I hope that the street children and other people will also have food to eat during Christmas Eve, shelter to live on and new clothes to wear.How I wish I can help them....How can I help them?? How we can help them??


            I can see myself helping this Christmas by simply praying for those persons who are in need. Always include them in our prayers.If we have excess budget we can help them by giving them some foods to eat. If we have some old clothes we can give it. We can donate toys on selected fast foods.We can also donate on some charitable institutions to help. There are lot of ways to help this Christmas. All we have to do is to open our heart to give. Be a cheerful giver. According to a saying " it is better to give than to receive". So it's the time to help and even if it is not Christmas continue to help and continue to be a blessing to others.
