than the 5 yr old,
I have to allow
them to enjoy the
child’s spirit of
Christmas (the
tree, the wish lists,
Santa Claus, etc.)
while keeping the
TRUE MEAN-
ING of Christ-
mas, and our
Catholic teach-
ings, at the fore-
front of their
minds as well.When I do that, it’s also a good reminder for
me at the same time.We can’t get TOO caught up in the
voice of our materialistic society, but rather remain focused
on the ‘bridegroom’s voice’ of Jesus as the most important
one.
Prayer
Dear Lord, give me the wisdom to enjoy the true meaning of
the Christmas season every day of the year, and the strength
of mind and ear to remain tuned to your voice as the one
that leads my choices and actions.
For this I pray each day.Amen
