Christmas Greetings to you!

And so the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army of angels praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among people with whom He is pleased.” – Luk 2:10-14

Each year the Advent Season provides us with a unique opportunity of refocusing and rededication. Christmas not only reminds us of the awe-inspiring, world-changing and life-changing gift of salvation that is Jesus Himself; it also reminds us of our constant need for Jesus to be with us in our worries and difficulties, restoring and sustaining and comforting us. After all, that is what He came to do! To bring peace between God and man. That is why the angels solemnly proclaimed, “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among people with whom He is pleased.” (Luk 2:14).

In this troubling time filled with wars, temptations, and challenges, may He find us people of His good pleasure and give us peace!

May He fill us with the amazement of Mary, the obedience of Joseph, the joy of the angels, the zeal of the shepherds, the determination of the Magi, and the peace of the Christ Child.

Glory to God in the highest, and to all of you, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

“Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among people with whom He is pleased.” – Luk 2:14
