The Light of God's Love
The star in the heavens points to God's gift to his people on earth. God is love and his gift to us is love; he loved us so much that he gave us his Son.
God's love is so prevalent that it radiates brightening all that it touches. We reflect his shining glory - "radiant at what [we] see." He waits for all of us and welcomes all who seek him.
The awe that this love inspires unites everyone in a common purpose which takes precedence above all else. Everyone journeys together towards this immense goodness, this source of hope. In gratitude, they bring the best they have to offer.
This unity generates peace which brings contentment.
We gather together in church to worship God. As we leave mass, we may hear “Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life.” We go wherever we are called to be during the week ahead - home, the office, or school - and we can bring the gift of love with us.
In what ways may I share the love and warmth of God- brightening someone's day with? With a smile? With a "Hello?"
Wishing you a year of peace and contentment,
