OUR BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT
On Christmas Eve of 1986 a package was found stuck between the gates of my rented house. When my wife asked me to check the package, I was hesitating for there had been bombings in Manila. However, I managed to open the package and found two toys for our two sons (ages 3 and 5). The gifts were given by the daughter of our maid. According to our maid, her daughter had no money to buy toys, so she had gone caroling, singing Christmas songs from door to door. People in Manila sometimes give money to kids in such circumstances. In this way she was able to gather a few coins for the presents. When Jesus came to this world 2000 years ago, he came in a lowly form and gave us the best gift of eternal life.
