CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

We had a good discussion this morning at table about life and loving and especially what St. Therese has shared with us about how to love.
She believed that God desires us to love Him with all our heart, soul and mind.
To have confidence to the point of boldness in the Love that God has for us.
Such a wonderful thought to carry with us through the day, especially in our preparations for Christmas.
To have a true Christmas spirit depends on so many efforts on our part.
Being happy is a good start and then dealing with whatever is or may cause us to be unhappy.
To have confidence to the point of boldness is a good challenge to take with us each day as we prepare for the birth of Christ.
God is willing to give Himself to us in the form of an innocent baby, dependent on his loving mother and human nature to protect him.
We may experience good moments with our celebrations of Christmas and maybe some moments that challenge us to become better than we are.
How wonderful to gift ourselves with the innocence of Christ!
