King Charles III's Christmas Day message focuses on the importance of compassion and helping those in need, drawing inspiration from the example of Jesus Christ.
King Charles III honoured the sacrifices of military veterans and healthcare workers , while celebrating the example given to the world by Jesus Christ in his annual Christmas Day message to the British Commonwealth. The example that Jesus gave us is timeless and universal. It is to enter the world of those who suffer, to make a difference to their lives and so bring hope where there is despair.
As the famous Christmas Carol, ‘Once In Royal David’s City’ reminds us, ‘Our Saviour holy’ ‘came down to Earth from Heaven’, lived among ‘the poor and mean and lowly’ and transformed the lives of those he met, through God’s ‘redeeming love’. That is the heart of the Nativity Story and we can hear its beat in the belief of all the great faiths in the love and mercy of God in times of joy and of suffering, calling us to bring light where there is darkness. The message, which was pre-recorded from the Fitzrovia Chapel of the former Middlesex Hospital in London, rather than the traditional Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle locations, was a personal one, highlighting the health scares faced by himself and other members of the Royal Family. All of us go through some form of suffering at some stage in our life, be it mental or physical. The degree to which we help one another – and draw support from each other, be we people of faith or of none – is a measure of our civilisation as nations. This is what continually impresses me, as my family and I meet with, and listen to, those who dedicate their lives to helping others. The King offered a “special, heartfelt thanks to the selfless doctors and nurses who, this year, have supported me and other members of my family through the uncertainties and anxieties of illness, and have helped provide the strength, care and comfort we have needed
