2………….> Small In God’s Creation

On a clear winter night, have you looked at the star studded sky and wondered what’s beyond? Have you ever felt small under a canopy of stars so bright yet feeling so close that you can reach and touch one? Enter UY Scuti, a star with a diameter of 1.26 billion miles, the largest star in our maternal galaxy of the Milky Way, larger than Orion’s Betelgeuse and VY Canis Majoris, located 9500 light years away. On this day of celebration and expectation of the birth of the child from Bethlehem, we cannot help but wonder if our beloved Father and Saviour Christ the Forever Light was sent to save us and guide us to salvation, or was he a divine conduit in the search for the supreme being behind the stars, where we can be one with the Creator.

3…………> With the twinkling lights of the zodiacs above bashfully surrounding the brilliant star that has risen over Bethlehem and the world, let’s celebrate the birth of a child, a son of God that has come to shine the golden rays of his love and mercy on us. Merry Christmas to all.

2………..> A celebration of light, a victory over darkness

In this season of divine expectations and wishes for miracles, let’s share the blessings of the child from Bethlehem with all of Abraham’s children.

 

3…………> Back To Church: Mosul

Christian worshippers in Iraq’s northern city of Mosul celebrated their first Mass on Sunday since Daesh overran the city in 2014.
The Mass was held at the Church of St. Paul in eastern Mosul, pastor Saad Saliwah told Anadolu Agency.
“Our church bells rang for the first time in more than three years since Daesh captured the city,” he said.

The Mass was attended by the patriarch of Iraq’s Chaldean Catholic Church, Patriarch Louis Raphael Sako, and a host of religious and military figures.

4………….>Jesus Birth: The Gospels

The real stories of Christmas have very little to do with the reality according to research by distinguished theologians.
Firstly, the actual birth day of Jesus was not on December 25, but a date we celebrate that was adopted by the Christian church as his birthday in the fourth century. 

Secondly, linking Jesus’s conception with his death nine months prior to December 25 was important for underscoring salvation.

Thirdly, the actual birth of our Saviour according to Luke recounts the story of the angel Gabriel appearing to Mary, the couple’s journey to Bethlehem because of a census and the visit of the shepherds. And finally, according to Luke 2:7 “Mary gave birth to her firstborn son, she swaddled him and laid him in the feeding trough because there was no space for them in their guest room”, since Joseph and Mary stayed with family but the guest room was too small for childbirth and hence Mary gave birth in the main room of the house.

1…………> Identity Fraud:

A Dominican citizen named Furvio Flete-Garcia, 45, a resident of Lawrence, Massachusetts, was sentenced to 11 years in prison today after pleading guilty  to conspiring to defraud the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), access device fraud, theft of government property, aggravated identity theft and money laundering.

According to the indictment, the defendant obtained the personal identification information of Puerto Rico residents and without their knowledge or consent, paid others to prepare and file tax returns with the IRS in their names, as he collected $7 million in fraudulent refund checks at two different check cashing businesses in Lawrence. An additional $5 million of refunds were claimed on fraudulent income tax returns presented to the IRS.

2…………> Christmas Carol:Enter Dickens

In early 1840s post-Industrial Revolution Britain was experiencing an economic depression, with raging unemployment after few bad harvests, and the price of food well beyond the reach of the commoners, an infamous period of country’s history appropriately labeled as the ‘Hungry Forties’. About that time Charles Dickens was invited to a fundraising dinner in aid of the Charterhouse Square infirmary, and was horrified by the depth of poverty in Manchester’s population of elderly, impoverished men. 

Appalled by the establishment whom he resentfully described as “overfed, snorting cattle”, he wanted to write something on behalf of poor children that would grab people’s attention, something to strike “a sledgehammer blow” and have “twenty thousand times the force” of a government pamphlet.
This irresistible impulse for social change was amplified by the trials of his disabled nephew Harry Burnet, who became the inspiration for Tiny Tim, and the rest is a literary history.

3………….> Santa Trump: 2015 Christmas MessageA Reprint of a 2015 Christmas Post On The Trials Of Then Candidate Donald J. Trump.

As Christmas is just around the corner and most of the Establishment RomRyns (Romney/Ryan boys) had a disastrous and losing campaigns, it is appropriate to reminisce our August 27, 2015 Santa Trump post: While the peaceful Filipinos are feasting on adobo, pancit and warm rice, listening to nocturnal Sinatra songs in their island paradise, the Chinese tug boats have roped the whole archipelago, dragging it West/ North West at 1/4 miles per day. By the time Obama is out in some 500 days and the last suitcase has been thrown in the back of his limousine, the Philippines will be overlapping the Chinese artificial islands and they can take possession without firing a shot(and they really did). Obama of course could care less, and naturally “downplay” the whole crime, tossing it in the lap of the Republicans. Meanwhile, Pres. Putin would have taken over the North pole territories, de-facto making Santa Claus and his reindeer’s Russian nationals, giving then Pres. Trump his first challenge; A Western Christmas without Santa. But being the manager and commander he is, Chief Trump will quickly find a amicable solution. The Constitution does not prevent the Commander in Chief of being Santa Claus, so why not do a double duty? Get nine Fox News bred and raised reindeer’s Graham, Kasich, Pataki and Cristen, Carson, Cruzen, Santorun and Jinden, Rudolf naturally replaced by his favored girl Megyn. Who’s stocking will be empty next Christmas? Chief Trump earliest detractors at Macy and Jeb “My family loves open borders” Bush.

Wayne Robinson suffered crippling depression while living on the streets, after a hard childhood and stint in jail, but a small gesture of generosity helped him blossom into an artist with a talent for creating hand-drawn cards. 
Despite that he has lived on the streets of Melbourne for half his life, in recent years he has developed a loyal following, with fans from from all over Australia and distant places as far as Singapore, Malaysia and Great Britain.
