Matthew 2: 1-12 & Isaiah 60: 1-6

God’s signs & the prophetic messages reveal to us the true meaning of Christmas. It is why we celebrate Christmas if we believe in God & if we don’t yet, at the very least, it is what we publicly or privately seek after isn’t it? Peace, joy, hope, justice, mercy & love for all people is what we should be celebrating for that is what guided us to embrace with the birth of His Son. So, the question remains: was your spirit awakened to those feeling as you celebrated Christmas this year or not?

Matthew 2: 1-12 & Isaiah 60: 1-6

We enter this new year in the season of Light that shatters the darkness & brings us hope. Throughout our journey this new year, darkness will come & will go but regardless of the lurking darkness that threads its way into our lives, we now know that the Divine Light of God our Creator shines in the darkness & is always there guiding us on our journey.

Jeremiah 31: 31-33 Luke 3: 2b-6

I think as Christians about to celebrate the birth of God’s only Son, our fully human- fully divine Lord & savior, we need to pause amidst all our rushing around & re-think what we mean when we say we are preparing for Christmas. Somehow, all this superficial racing around & self-imposed pressure in the name of preparing to receive God’s gift to us, just does not make any sense, does it?

Jeremiah 3: 31-33 Luke 3: 2b-6

 As believers preparing to celebrate God’s Holy gift of Jesus among us, we are called in faith to open our hearts to let Jesus come into our being through prayer, the Holy Word, & worship.
