Christmas Greeting From St. Josemaria Institute
Here’s a Christmas greeting from the St. Josemaria Institute:
“God is here.”
“This day shall light shine upon us; for the Lord is born to us.” (Is 9:2) “This is the great announcement which moves Christians today. Through them it is addressed to all mankind. God is here. This truth should fill our lives, and every Christmas should be for us a new and special meeting with God, when we allow his light and grace to enter deep into our soul.”
‘Iesus Christus, Deus homo: Jesus Christ, God-man. This is one of “the mighty works of God,” (Acts 2:11) which we should reflect upon and thank him for. He has come to bring “peace on earth to men of good will,” (Lk 2:14) to all men who want to unite their wills to the holy will of God—not just the rich, not just the poor, but everyone…’
