Saint of the day… St. Frances Xavier Cabrini
Well, here we are. In 3 days we celebrate Christmas. The birth of Jesus Christ, son of God. Have you taken the time to realize that without noting his birth, life, death, and resurrection, there is absolutely nothing different about this time of year than any other time of year?
Have you also realized this time of year can bring out the worst things?
There are many walking wounded in the holiday season. I suspect it is because we have been conditioned to believe extravagant spending on gifts is necessary to show someone we love them or to indicate our success in life. This is a lie. Don’t swallow it. Don’t buy into the worldly thinking of $$ = success, love, importance, and acceptance. It is a lie, one the great deceiver wants you to believe.
May you find the love of Christ this Christmas season.
Know you are prayed for.
