Introduction:
Every Christmas, I focus on the scriptural aspect of Jesus' life. This year I created the Christmas crib on the theme: "I am the light of the world". (John 8:12)
Each element of this crib conveys a specific meaning.
As always, I have used simple materials like paper and cardboard to create this crib from scratch.
I thank God for guiding me in creating this Christmas crib to HIS honor, throughout the entire design and creation process.
Wish you Merry Christmas and a Blessed New year 2025.
May the faithful love of Jesus Christ live in our heart and our life — forever.
Christmas theme:
I am the light of the world.
Description:
Candle: A candle symbolizes light and hope. Jesus Christ, the Light of the World, is the living light and a living hope for those who dwell in the darkness of unbelief.
Heart: The heart symbolizes the love of our Lord Jesus. Jesus Christ came into this world out of love, offering Himself as a sacrifice for the salvation of humanity. Joseph and Mary also participated in this divine mission with love, faithfully fulfilling God's holy will.
White melted wax: The white melted wax symbolizes the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus, flowing abundantly over the unbelieving world.
Red melted wax: The red melted wax flowing from the heart represents the suffering and sacrifice—the blood poured out in love for the atonement of the sins of the unbelieving world.
Star: The star symbolizes the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is the guiding star that led the wise men to find Him. He continues to be the guiding star that illuminates our path through the darkness of an unbelieving world, leading us safely to eternal salvation.
In the Christmas nativity scene, the emphasis is placed primarily on the infant Jesus. The roles of Joseph and Mary are somewhat subdued, reflecting the sentiment expressed in John 3:30: "He must increase, but I must decrease," akin to the role of St. John the Baptist.
Wish you Merry Christmas and a Blessed New year 2025.
