Luke 2:10-11 - "But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.'"
Christmas Day, the pinnacle of our advent journey, represents God's ultimate gift to humanity: the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Just as the main course is the centerpiece of a feast, Jesus is the heart of our faith. His birth is more than a historic event; it is the embodiment of God's love for us.
As we celebrate, it's essential to remember that Jesus, God incarnate, came to bridge the gap between the Divine and humanity, offering salvation and eternal life to all who believe.
Merry Christmas to you and your family from Christian Kitchens.
