Blessed Christmas

When the angels went away from them to heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go, then, to Bethlehem to see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.”  So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.  When they saw this, they made known the message that had been told them about this child.  All who heard it were amazed by what had been told them by the shepherds.  And Mary kept all these things reflecting on them in her heart.  Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them.

-         Luke 2:15-20

May Blessed Mother Mary guide the reflections in the silence of our hearts.

May we join with the angels and shepherds in giving “Glory to God in the highest.”

May the blessings and peace of Christmas be yours now and through the New Year.
