Today, our hearts are the MANGER; it cradles Jesus. When we love, and when we fill others’ hearts with hope, we make Jesus known. Therefore, like the magi and hopeful prisoner, let’s take a quantum leap in our faith in God and follow the light of hope and believe that “the Kingdom of God is possible…that it is not an illusion or a figment of an overexcited religious ethical mind…” It is genuine! COVID-19 cannot stop it – it’s coming.
Today is the Fourth SUNDAY of ADVENT! Five days from now, is already the VIGIL for CHRISTMAS; and the following day is CHRISTMAS DAY. Wow! The spiritual transition of the Fourth SUNDAY of ADVENT to CHRISTMAS is like a lightning. As if God, cannot wait any longer to be born in our hearts. What a BLESSING! What a LOVE! It is really everlasting!
