Octave of Christmas 2015
Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man. If we want to know how much God loves us, all we need do is think of the Incarnation. In all humility the Son of God bridged the infinite gap between God and man. The closer we come to God the more we realize we are the lowest of all beings. Pride tells a lie, which is why God answers the prayers of the humble. This day celebrates the Solemnity of the Blessed Virgin and the Circumcision of Our Lord. As we enter a new year, we confide our past faults to God’s mercy and live in the present. We must be recollected and prayerful, and we must see reality as it is – even if it is unpleasant. This is the way to peace and happiness.
