Almost 6 left another year will come again.we will be facing another chapter of our lives.as the days past by have we search ourselves if we have done a good things for God?in our life we always do many things for ourselves, friends,relatives and others.we are already leaving the past year.we ahve many times for other things and do some things that we want to do.Last Christmas we give gifts to everyone specially to our loveones,friends,relatives,officemates and others but do we ahve gift to the real celebrant which is the Jesus Christ for his birthday?althought we don't know the exact date of his birthdate but do we offer somthing for him?I'm sure some of us do some list for those people whom we gonna give gifts but who is the number one in the list?I'm sure that Christ is not in the first in the list that we've done.Do we consider ourselves what we've done for him for this past year?do you think he is happy to waht we are doing for him?if it is tested with fire will it last or itl will be burned up?what do you think my friend?have you done your best to and sacrifice to please him?What do you think my friend?Share it to us

I am happy with how I live my life, but I know I could do better!

what i mean is do we do the best that we can be when it comes to him?are we confident enough if we've done our part as a christian?if we are not doing what he wants us to do that means we are not giving our best for him.we should not be contented on the things that we do.

If you've sacrificed to God, but you've ignored and neglected your own family you are no better than the worst sinner. If you've reached beyond your Church but ignored the plight of a fellow member then you are no better than the worst sinner.

I am a Hindu but I do celebrate Xmas, though not with all the rituals that may be associated. Anyways, I appreciate the Introspection done by you.. Are we doing enough for him & for the Humanity??... Nopes.. I dunn think so.. we are nowhere near, & there seems to be no fear.. not anymore!! How can we go back to the days of yore! The time when humanity was a bit more significant.. We need some modern day examples showing the good gets rewarded & the bad gets punished!! when they come out people will surely do some more good.. :P

I hope he is happy for what I have done this year- for if he is not, then I would not be happy myself. It is my goal and responsibility to please he who is of higher authority. I would hate to think that I did not please my one and only savior.

While I respect your religion and its teachings, I believe that one does not need to "sacrifice" to please God. This is because God is a loving heavenly Father who does not want to see us suffer. He does not punish but loves us endlessly. He is ever ready to love us and care for us. All we must do is try to listen to him, believe in him fully and never stray from the Divine path. Or simply ask him to show you the way, with all your heart and he will do so. To be close to God does not mean having to undego pain and sacrifices for him, we must be ever joyful, overflowing with happiness. Happy new year to you!
