Very often in life, we try to find meaning and purpose and happiness in big things. We think we can be happy only if we have great achievements to show to people. We feel great about ourselves only when we are dressed glamorously. Yet at the end of the day, we ask ourselves, has our Christmas been truly meaningful and joyful? Indeed, we can be so caught up with activities during the Christmas season that we miss out what is most important - to discover the glory of God in our midst. Indeed, it is the small things in life that make us truly happy. Where is God to be found? He is found in the ordinariness of life. If only we would pay attention to what we already have. If we are grateful and do not take things for granted, our blessings in life, we will find God. He is found in the manger! Secondly, He is found most of all in human love and compassion. God is found when we are in touch with our heart, which is created for love, understanding and fellowship. God is found in authentic human friendships when there is true exchange of love and sharing of life. The greatest gift at Christmas is not the giving of things but the giving of ourselves, not presents but our presence. It is the joy of intimacy with our loved ones and friends. Living for others and touching their hearts by our love, care, concern and friendship is where the glory of God is revealed through us and in those whom we serve.
