17th Day of Advent

“We look at the baby who will be born in a few days in Bethlehem of Judaea, and we know very well that He is the key, the center and the purpose of the whole of man’s history. “ (Second Vatican Council)

On this child depends our whole existence, on earth and in heaven.  He became so small in order that we should not be afraid to come close to Him.   His most holy Humanity is our way to the Trinity.

Especially we must contemplate His life, to derive from it strength, light, serenity, and peace.

 Pro-Life Challenge:

Do I take time each day to contemplate His life and try to imitate His smallness?
