“Bring the purpose of the birth of Jesus Christ to our Families” is the theme of Christmas. Jesus Christ, the son of the Almighty God was born to Mary who engaged with a carpenter called Joseph was born in a poor cattle mart. As the son of the God, Jesus Christ was able to live a luxuries life but to fulfill his desire of salvation people from the sin, he lived insignificant life with Mary and Joseph. At this Christmas, we should set an example to others by living insignificant lives by facing all troubles with confidence through combining the birth and lifestyle of Jesus with ours.
