About Christmas
2015-12-03
Only Christmas feels like Cairo and the world of Cronus continuing without a break since childhood even if I reach several degrees Christmas. Like the times before continuing up to the present day after it was to a Catholic priest from the times of the theologian in the times of Cairo if it was junior high school High School college student days that came in the world of Cronus to celebrate Christmas if Cairo's is "everlasting now", and Cronus is "now of the real world" feel like.
  However, especially say that invite Christmas in the world of the Cairo's in the Catholic priest life of here ten several years if say exactly; feel.
  If the world of Cairo is everlasting now, it is the magnificent drama of God and the human being beginning at Abraham, and only God tell a human being about the existence, and I am given Moses' Ten Commandments, and, after Exod., the promise "that I protect you if I protect these rules and lead" is protected by Moses and leads Israeli people, and the human history leads it to Canaan Jerusalem, but the Israeli people betray it many times and receive anger from God and are the history to learn that by little follows only God, and to grow up.
  I am finally convinced of existence of only God after the return to Babylon hoshu and Jerusalem by the guidance of the prophet as the errand of God from there after the times of a line king in the times of the Jud.
  There were always existence of God and a deep relation with a human being particularly Israeli people until birth of Jesus in time called 1900. When I waited impatiently for realization of the prophecy that "the Messiah" was born in that heartily, by modest Maria, Son of God was born in the world. It is Christmas.
  It is a magnificent bird's-eye view for 1900 years, but time of Cairo seems to be delicately concerned at time of Cronus of this world that we live in casually when I look from a viewpoint to be called a plan of God. I call it "time" of God.
  And own egos grow wild without the aspect changing though I was incorporated in the plan of the saving grace in the present times by a cross of Jesus and think that it may grow wild in that even if sense of values of the world is Christ believer. Only the relation of sense of values of the world namely money and a thing and the person was important and I avoided the world of sufferings called "the infirmities of old age verge of death" from 4 and seemed to come to live. As totally only God led Israeli people in a wilderness, I seemed to forget that people of God were brought up through various pains.
  In other words, it is an Israeli people before turning into one-god belief from polytheism. I sometimes think that I may live to taste "heaven of the world" not a country of the sky which is a God's country in our heart to miss life in Egypt on earth what will be put in the middle of our heart whenever I meet so that the Israeli people who crossed the Red Sea suffer.
   A prediction of Isaiah is read every year when it is this time (period of 4-week preparations before reaching Christmas in the Advent).
  "I hear a voice of the person crying in a wilderness.
  "You fix the way of the master, and straighten the route.
   All the valleys are buried, and mountain and all Oka are lowered.
   The bent way levels straight out the rough way, and all the people look up at a saving grace (Isaiah 40 chapters 3-5)
 
  How will you be going to fix the way of the master? Will you apply a heart to sacrifice and patience and permitting it to be concrete to give something? You serve a family while entrusting it to our heart while giving hotness and sorrow of the infirmities of old age verge of death to God, and will you pray for for a family or an ill person, a suffering person? In addition, will you pray for oneself?
  It is to work straight as a logos source and will flatten the irregularities of the heart of my own. I do not think that a weakness and stupidity are dissolved, but think that I come to be able to admit that oneself is stupid weakly. I always pray, "feel pity a master". It is different from the turning to God to help when I was in trouble, but thinks that I might continue having only the conviction, it "is only God you to always lead me." for these five years.
  Not a way of thinking on the basis of the commerce, it is necessary to notice what is demanded how you live as a human being to reach Christmas. The center of the concrete Christ's way of life is to become friends of "the person made small". Do not use the heart only for own thing, and, by birth of yes on Christmas, pay more attention to yes's way of life; think that should not think so that it is when is important.
  I think that I hear the word to be called "Women for others" for the umpteenth time at school. So. Because it is Christ's way of life, the way of life is the best. If all do a relationship with the feeling, a hard, hard thing walks much, but feels like being told when oneself can become you as a human being more wealthily. It be Christmas to be able to take good care of a person like yes.
