Rejoice in the Lord always. I shall say it again: rejoice!
Village is silent
Coffee is good.
The Saturday before Christmas, how did it get here so fast? I suspect it is because we were so wrapped up in the secular world that Christmas is all about buying and receiving presents and attending parties that we neglected to keep our eyes on Jesus.
Today, we are reading Luke chapter 21. https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/21

Take a moment to start your day with Jesus.
Day 6 of Bacci’s Christmas Novena “The Silence of the Divine Infant” page 510 of his book. The Infant we adore in the stable at Bethlehem is mute and silent. This silence is chosen to teach us humility & self-denial, to recollect ourselves in the presence of God, the silence of prayer which brings forth divine consolations and inspirations to holiness. It is essential to place ourselves quietly in the presence of God from time to time. He does not make himself heard through the noise and confusion of the world. He speaks clearly to the soul.
Know that you are prayed for.
