The Christmas harmattan

Image
Waking up early in the morning today reminds me of a remarkable story. Today the harmattan weather was a bit tense with dust , accompanied by a no where to hide cold. Even though one was covered with a blanket, this cold makes one feel as if the blanket was perforated. So i remember it was christmas. Long ago a child was born in a cold stable and he was placed in nothing but a manger. He is the prince of peace, an epitome of humbleness and a light to our dark hearts. This cold reminds me of the condition he was born in just to save you and me and today we celebrate his birth . MERRY CHRISTMAS!

The Baby boy in a manger

A boy was born in a stable , placed in a manger in the little town of bethlehem. His birth was unique non like any other. But what is so special about this birth? You can't believe it, its the birth of the  heir of the  kingdom of God. A king in the making, an exalted prince!. But why would he come into this world in a conventional way? The only answer is love and humbleness. He took it upon himself to come into this world in a mortal form to help our helpless soul for the sake of his unconditional love for us! . We celebrate his birth, that is christmas!!

The heart of Joseph the Capenter

Joseph is what they call you, a righteous man and the prominent carpenter of the town of Nazareth. You are known to be very dilligent and skilled in your work, no wonder you have lot of apprentice! . You love and respect people and the people respect you. When you discover your betrothed was pregnant, you refused to expose her to public disgrace even though you thought she was unfaithful. You have a big heart, no wonder God choose your generation to usher our king into this world!
