Christmas is a special season for Godly children like me to celebrate Master Jesus. It's also a time to see ourselves marching into a bond of greatness.


I salute @curtain for coming up with this astonish idea. I greet the supporters and amiable Steemians.

What does the Christmas tree mean to you?

Christmas tree mean a lot to me.

  • It reminds me of the crucifixion of our Lord Jesus Christ, how he was nailed and beaten for my sake. The Bible says: He was wounded for our sins.

  • It reminds of a convention that always take place annually in my church. That convention calls for various ministerial offices in Nigeria.

  • The tree is a symbol of love for one-another. So during this period, love is basically practiced. You see members, friends gifting themselves various kind of gifts. Some go extra mile, surprising their love ones with expensive jewellery.

  • The lights on the tree mean “the coming year would be productive, and beautiful”.

Have you had a Christmas tree every Christmas season?

No. In my country, that looks odd. We don't do that. Instead, we gift ourselves other kinds of gift. Gifts like buying bible, academic materials for the person.

How do you like to decorate your tree?

I would love to decorate the tree by designing it with three different colours:

  • Sky blue. Like I said earlier, sky blue is like the atmosphere. It will be the number onet 1 most-considered investments.
  • Red: On the second part of the tree, I will design it with red. This remind of me of been spiritually watchful, mostly when you're no longer with the world anymore.
  • Black: This reminds reminds me of been conducting personal fasting for myselfs.

Has it been difficult for you to acquire decorations for your tree or do you save and recycle them every year?

It has been difficult. The expenses are not friendly at all. So instead of buying decorations, I use my creative-brain to build decorations for myself.

If you could choose a tree from the image I show you, which one would you select and why?

I would select the sky-blue. It represent christ in nature form. Meaning that, God is omnipresent. And more reason why I consider this one-point a heavyweight is because God is the sustainer of my life.
