December 25, 2016: Nativity of the Lord/Christmas Day

God spoke through the prophets in ages past, many of whose words we heard during Advent.  But now He speaks to us in fullest expression through His Son Jesus Christ, the Word Made Flesh who comes to dwell with us--O! the wonder and mystery of God in flesh in the baby born of Mary and Joseph at Bethlehem.

God is no longer distant, but has come to be with us like never before, filling us and our world with Light.  This is good news of exceedingly great joy that is worth going out to proclaim exuberantly as the whole world rejoices that in the restoration to beauty that occurs as God comes to establish His Reign of peace, justice, and righteousness.
