Joseph and the Christmas Miracle 

There was once a boy named Joseph. He was fascinated with Christmas celebrations and loved to spread smiles on everyone’s faces. But things were different this year. Joseph’s business was not doing well and his family was struggling. His parents couldn’t manage gifts for everyone. He was feeling extremely sad and wanted to cry in his mother’s arms. 

On Christmas Eve, Joseph enjoyed his favourite meal which his mother made. She made sure that her son could forget about not getting a present this year. Joseph went to bed early and snuggled up in his favourite blanket. He made sure to keep his Santa soft toy alongside. 

While everyone was asleep, Joseph suddenly woke up, struck by a beam of light coming from his stables. Curiously, he wore his soft furry slippers, went down the stairs, and peeked inside the stables to find answers to his questions. 

Amidst the sleeping cows and piles of hay, Joseph saw a woman gently caressing a newborn baby. Beside them, the animals of the stable sat peacefully, looking at the baby and admiring his precious smile.

Soon Joesph learned that this was no ordinary baby. It was Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He was here to bring love, laughter, and life into his life. He sat at some distance from Jesus, closed his sparkling eyes, and tried to enjoy the carols. 

Suddenly, he started feeling better as if this was the best Christmas of his life. All the gloomy darkness of life went away by merely looking at the miracle baby. He silently went to his bed so that the baby could sleep in peace. The next morning, Joseph woke up feeling great. He decided to keep last night’s adventures a secret. 

When he went downstairs to have breakfast, he was as surprised as his mother and father. There was wine on the table with the freshness of juicy fruits. Their house was decorated with Christmas lights and decorations. There was a beautiful wreath at the front door. 

Joseph quickly described last night’s happenings to his parents and their eyes turned watery. They knew this was a miracle of the Almighty. Although Joseph’s family couldn’t manage a grand feast, Joseph and his parents were thankful to Jesus Christ for bringing a smile to their faces. They shared whatever luxuries they had with others in need. In this way, Joseph learned the joy of sharing.

Rebecca and the Fairy

There was once a little girl named Rebecca who lived in a small village. Christmas was her favourite time of the year. She loved making gingerbread cookies, singing carols with her family, sharing gifts, and decorating her house with twinkling lights. 

Rebecca loved listening to Jesus Christ story. She always wondered why such a special baby had to be born in animal stables. Wouldn’t a grand celebration be more fitting? 

One windy evening when everyone was busy with household chores, Rebecca went to her room and snuggled under her covers. She couldn’t help but think of the question with every bite of cookie that she took. Suddenly, a warm yellow light filled her room and there she saw, a beautiful fairy with wings coming down from heaven. 

The fairy had large white wings, a beautiful pink dress, white shoes, and 2 ponytails, just like Rebecca. She rushed into the arms of the fairy and gave her a big hug. Hello, Rebecca, said the fairy. I’m here to answer your questions about baby Jesus. 

As excited as Rebecca was to meet the fairy, she was also hesitant. After all, it was like a dream come true. Long ago, the fairy continued, people forgot the true meaning of Christmas. They forgot the importance of small gestures such as kindness and sharing. Baby Jesus wasn’t born in a place, the fairy continued, because such precious gifts do not come wrapped in gold paper. Instead, they come from our kind thoughts and generous hearts.

Rebecca felt happier. She finally understood that Christmas is not all about sharing gifts. Rebecca ran towards her cupboard and came with a picture album. She started showing pictures of her family, her sisters singing carols to old residents around her house, and baking cookies to give at the orphanage. 

The next day, Rebecca woke up feeling happier than ever. She helped people decorate the local church, baked cookies for everyone, and even sang carols for an old grumpy man. As Christmas finally arrived, people in Rebecca’s village were happy with her actions. She knew her acts of kindness brought smiles to everyone’s faces.
