We celebrated Christmas a bit more different this year as Half of the family remained behind to spend Christmas in Grootforntein and the other half went up North to spend Christmas there. It was really not part of the plan but due to certain circumstances everything turned out this way.
But that didn't stop any of us from enjoying and being thankful for this day.
Fiyo and I prepared the Christmas meal, and it was really great to have neighbors over. I read the Christmas story out of the mom's Oshiwambo bible...which kind of took a while since it has been a long time I read in my own language. And we had our time of sharing testimonies and thanks giving.
I know that everybody's way of celebrating Christmas is totally different from the other, but I am thankful that we have one person in common that we are all celebrating, the man Jesus Christ who unite us all as one.
The Christ-Messiah.
We are not only celebrating His birth on this day, but much more of God's great love and grace towards us; that He out of love was willing to send down His son, who took on flesh and died for our sins in order to reconcile us back to God.
We have every reason and so much to be thankful for.
We can never be able to count God's goodness and blessings towards us, but we can offer up a heart of thanksgiving unto Him as we remember His goodness on this day and in every day that follows.
Merry Christmas everyone.
May we forever rejoice and be thankful for God's greatest gift unto us.
