Loneliness?
This is perhaps the greatest downside of the Christmas holidays, loneliness! The festival only lasts a few days, but regret may lead to self-harm or suicide?
We may start well in life, doing our own thing but age brings its own problems? Friends and family pass-away and we may find ourselves alone not wanting to face truths and pains from mistakes in the past?
Christmas is full of fun, decorations, music, lights and kids who can have really enjoy it!
Believers need to look out for those older folks, a hot drink, meal, card and chat helps, feeling wanted also helps it really can go a long way!
God so loved this world He made that is why He gave us Jesus His one and only Son, for whoever believes in Him will have Eternal Life?
Luke 2:7, 12, 16, John 3:3, 15-18, Romans 3:23, 5:16-18, 6:23, 1 Peter 4:10.

LOVE Expressed?
St. Valentines Day.
The romantics in us will perhaps mark this day with the card, roses, box of something nice and the meal? Some will do it as an appreciation of the wife/husband other to get that partner into bed for a randy night of passion?
But this is not what St. Valentine is all about, but rather expressing Christian love to those who are without, the poor, the immigrant, the refuges, the homeless and so the list can go on and on? What is involved is putting yourself out for others, a meal, a blanket, clean clothing, a chat, showing interest and concern for what they have are and possibly might go through!
It about showing the love of Jesus, if what we claim is real in that we know the Lord Jesus as our saviour? We have to show His compassion, because any of us could fall and end up on the streets, be homeless or addicted to something?
Matthew 9:36, 15:32, Ephesians 2:4, 1 John 4:10-11, 19.
