This is a true meaning of Christmas by celebrating Him with the understanding of His love and His goodness for us, than just having a Christmas party or Christmas program, giving gifts out of obligation or even Christmas holiday in some expensive resort.

To live on purpose means you know your purpose and it give meaning also excited in your life. The purpose or meaning in your life is greater than your career, your ambition, more than your own personal fulfillment. Many people just question them self for their own as; What is my dream for my next 5 years/future? What do I want to be? What do I want to do?
How to know which activities are in line of Gods purpose to have meaning for your life? You can ask your self, “Do these activities help me to fulfill God’s purposes in my life? And concentrate your time, effort on what’s important – being selective. Ask God to help you to do efficient in what you are doing and ask Him for wisdom.” He wills grand you.People often make choice based on their mood, pressure and circumstances. The important thing is that what God say about your life and not what other people say.
The meaning of life of what God intended is;
oTo know God’s character and to love HIM with the whole of your heart, with the whole of your soul and with the whole of your mind. Mathew 22:37 – 38 (NIV)God really wants to have relationship with us, relationship means fellowship, relationship will not happened if only action or react just from one site, it need action/response from the both side. The good relationship develops because the both party do their part to please or make happy each other. If you has a friend and you really want to make friendship with your friend, you start to know him/her one by one about their liking, their history, as more as you pursue the relationship with your friend, the more better you know her/his character, their being. “I don’t want your sacrifices, I want your love, I don’t want your offering, I want you to know Me”. Hosea 6:6 (Living Bible)
oTo deliver God’s love in you to other people, it means anything you do which according His heart, any words come out from your mouth which is the words of encouragement to bring life to other and anything you think which has base on His truth / His words.
oTo enjoy His present, His goodness, His blessing.
The joy and encouragment from God in life are presence in a simple way, like a smile of your love one, a saying of encouragement or comfort words ‘’You mean much for me’’, ‘’Thank you for your stand in my site’’, ‘’I understand your situation’’, ‘’I keep praying for you’’ or an invitation for a cup of tea. My cup is overflow with God’s blessing in simple way and miraculous. Psalm 23:5(Esther) www.perisseuotour.com
One day, when I was in a subway station and I felt so thirsty, in there I found a vending machine that has bottled water and I put my coins in according to the instruction and press the button for the item that I want, then waited for a couple of second and finally come out the item from what I needed to drink.
It is a simple picture when we give to God with a joyful heart, by giving your smile or ears to be a listener or a helping hand or encouragement words for your love one, talent, money – to God means to His ministry / missions, the poor including your parent or sibling if they are in that condition, the needs of orphans and widows – and we should expect to receive something good, as Jesus said on Luk 6:38’’Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.’’
We certainly expect to get a bottle of water from the vending machine, when we give to God and share to him about our needs or problems, why often do not we reach out by faith to receive a miracle answer from His hand?
Do we trust a vending machine more than we trust our God who is alive and never change of his great promises? As Jesus said that I am the same today, yesterday, or last month, or last year, or 2000 years ago, tomorrow or next week or next 50 years, forever. (Tweychen)
