Christmas in Coming

 

In less than four weeks, we shall celebrate the Birth of the Incarnate God. I pray that all Christians this year remember the great poverty Christ endured for us. Too often, we forget He is God.

Be generous with yourselves in giving to others. Do not take anything or anyone for granted. Make a good Advent by corporal and spiritual works of mercy, as well as fasting and prayer. Get together with those who support your Faith. We do not know the time or the hour....Can you imagine Joseph's amazement at the coming of the Messiah in utter rejection by His Own People? The heir to the fallen House of David had much to think about, and how he must have suffered in his inability to provide warmth and a safe place for Mary. He must have known that somehow, this suffering was God's Will.
