This year I created the Christmas crib on the theme: "I am the way, the truth, and the life." [John 14:6]</p><p>I have created this crib in a logo style, where each element reflects a facet of this powerful verse, guiding viewers on a spiritual journey.</p><p>The process of designing, creating, and rectifying errors in certain intricate sections of the crib consumed a duration of a month and a half.</p><p>Every year as I embark on this faith journey through Christmas crib creation, I feel God's grace guiding my hands, and igniting my artistic spirit. For this divine help, I am eternally grateful to God.</p><p><span style="color: #04ff00; font-size: large;"><b>Wish you Merry Christmas and a Blessed New year 2024.</b></span></p><p>May the faithful love of Jesus Christ live in our heart and our life — forever.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Christmas theme:</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I am the way, the truth, and the life.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Description:</b></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Black terrain:</b> Black terrain smeared with blood is symbolic of the sinful world.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Bible:</b> The word of God is the way that brings us on the path of faith in God, and to the realization of the living Truth — Jesus Christ. The green cover is symbolic of the life-giving word — which brings us to new life in Christ.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Ladder:</b> The green (symbolic of growth) ladder is founded on the word of God, and it helps us to progress through difficulties and sufferings of life and leads us to Jesus. The winding path is symbolic of the testing of our faith.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Green twigs:</b> The twigs under the ladder are symbolic of the liveliness of the path of God.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Thorns: </b>Black thorns symbolize difficulties; sufferings; temptations; distractions — to lead us away from the path of eternal life.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Heart: </b>The living truth (Jesus Christ) — white heart symbolizes purity; divinity; Holiness; life in Jesus Christ. It is the life in Jesus Christ that renews us — makes us pure and Holy.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Cross: </b>Red cross symbolizes suffering in Jesus Christ.
