Abreva Making Cold Sores Worse

Feast of the Holy Family

 

                         HOLY FAMILY SUNDAY CYCLE A 2010.

" Arise take the child and his mother and flee into Egypt . " (Mt 2, 13-25).

Again the angel appears to Joseph in a dream and invites him to act. God not only sends us dreams, but invites us to put to work, to realize our dreams.

also these words of the angel to Joseph, they highlight the human drama of the family of Nazareth who must flee the country and emigrate, many families today, to a foreign country. Jesus is the son of immigrants. Since childhood he has lived under threat, as many children now threatened by hunger, misery, war and abuse. The God who is born in Bethlehem is one of them, an immigrant more.

Joseph receives this notice Angel dreams : " Arise, take the child and his mother and flee into Egypt " Jose angel requires that you stayed on the road again. In Bethlehem and is in a strange land. You might think that is happy to return to his village, Nazareth. But the angel of the Lord appeared to him and invites him again " rise, take the child and his mother and flee to Egypt, stay there until I tell you . And he got up and walked with the boy and his mother to Egypt. That is, Joseph is implementing the interior invitation . Again and again, God sends us " his angel" and tells us what to do.

Amid the insecurity of our lives, the angel of the Lord (meaning the proximity of God in our lives) is support and a light. The dream tells us where we stand, if danger threatens us still: What danger can threaten our lives? Herod What threatens the lives of so many human beings? We need to discern which way forward on our path.

Jesus also had to live in a foreign country, as emigrant, with all the hardships of those who emigrate. This Gospel takes special relevance today when the displaced and refugees, (one of the greatest human tragedies of our time), threaten to become one of the most explosive in the coming decades. There has always been migration, displacement, but today, when the world has become a global village, migration flows have been gigantic.

remembered today, to proclaim the Gospel the flight into Egypt is a warning: it is to believe and remember that He is still God-with-us . Is to assume that Jesus is present in the displaced, refugees, migrants today. To Mary and Joseph were not saving any of the concerns, the plight and the difficulties that exist in all families.

we celebrate Christmas is not for the privileged of the earth be celebrated with dinners and gifts abundant superfluous but that we share our lives by opening a path of hope for those who can not expect much from anyone but God is.

" Arise, take the child and his mother and returned to Israel . " Again the angel uninstall Joseph and his family. again have to be on the way ... We too often have to start again, and resumed our way to a fuller life and meaningful.

Today, the Feast of the Holy Family , need to remember that Jesus was educated, grew, love received, learned, worked, took values \u200b\u200bin the environment of an ordinary family: the family of Nazareth. The family of Nazareth is a meeting place human is experience of life and tenderness, and luminous sign of "God with us." Yes, Jesus reveals that God is with us, which is Emmanuel.

Certainly, the family is now threatened by a individualistic culture, which shuns any relation. It is becoming increasingly difficult the host of "you" involving the acceptance of others with their differences and care of the relationship. Costs to be faithful to the end ... Sometimes love is reduced to a "pleasant feeling" sensible level which soon passes, or love lives as a possession and not as generous. We live until they are "over." And ends "running soon."

need bet on the family: The family as a place of love and security is fundamental in the process of personal growth. Without this fundamental experience of the family the person reaches a certain maturity. The family is what gives us the experience basis of living together in love, respect for differences, mutual aid, tolerance. Jesus' family mediation is for us to open ourselves to the great family of the children of God.

We today before God to every family in the world and the entire human family to say: Lord, bless us in these days of Christmas Bless our families and give us further along the path of peace and brotherhood. Let your light shine on us all, your life will give us strength to follow you every day of our lives.

Tooth Extraction After

25TH DECEMBER: CHRISTMAS DAY

25TH DECEMBER: CHRISTMAS DAY

" In the beginning was the Word ." (Jn 1, 1-18).

could translate " in the beginning was Love " Someone who sustains all things and gives meaning to everything. In the beginning there was nothing . From nothing, nothing ever comes. In the beginning there was one, there was Mystery, Love .. This Love is the source and root of all . Is at the top. This love has arisen the great plan of the Father: the Life.

At Christmas we celebrate the God lives in us, every one of us gathered here. We exist thanks to the infinite love of God. Therefore, nihilism is overcome and we can move from anxiety to confidence.

" The Word was the true light that enlightens every man ." , Jesus, is inner light that illuminates our darkness, that lights our heart, with the clarity of his love ... This Light is for everyone. He has placed in every human being the desire to light: bread, water, life is offered to all because he has lit in the human heart is hungry, thirsty and this desire for life. Jesus is " the Light that shines in the darkness ." Christmas is light, is Life. Why do we go from the light and prefer the dark? This little boy, poor, helpless, is the Light, Love and Life. He comes to make sense of our human life on Earth.

" came to his house and his own did not receive . "You can not say anything more outrageous in more simple words. God has come to our world. God not have to look high in the sky. God is here with us, between us. God dwells deep within our hearts. It is precisely where humans have stopped looking, in our flesh, with our weaknesses, our pain, our joys and sorrows ...


not a pious metaphor say today that God " came to his house but his own received him not " ... Means that in all of us is the dramatic ability to reject the love and also the possibility to choose the path that leads to life or the way in which we can spoil, it also means our own blindness in we can confuse light with darkness. God can not find a place among us. God has no home in refugee camps, in which die of hunger, in suffering hatred and war in the Middle East, Iraq and hot spots of our planet. God, sometimes it does not take home in our heart when we can not accept it or not ....

" The Word became flesh and dwelt among us . " Remarkably the Evangelist uses the term "meat " instead of " man" to express that in Jesus, God took our humanity with all its weaknesses and limitations, our vulnerability as we live today. " The Word became flesh ." This is the fundamental affirmation of the Gospel of John with which we are aware that the birth of Jesus is not a mere historical fact, but much more. He comes to us and we welcome all, welcome our human condition. He comes to every human being is loved does not come to ask us anything, but to give it to everything.

In Jesus, God receives the fragility and impotence of our human condition. Jesus is the Word, "the plan" of God made flesh. Jesus makes God visible and close to every human being ... The humble face of Jesus of Nazareth shows us God's infinite love for us.

God has descended to the depths of our existence and yet we still find life empty. God has camped among us, and seems to be totally absent from our human relationships. God took our flesh and still do not know how to live our human condition tightly.

Today we are invited to open up the mystery of God who has shone in the man Jesus. We can also say with John, that "we beheld his glory ." We are called to also live the experience of today's Gospel: " We saw his glory, glory as of the only Son of the Father full of grace and truth ." life has been manifested in Jesus is present with this force of love, more powerful than our darkness, more powerful than death and that our hell. Because the force of Life has succeeded in Easter morning. face that death destroys is the Face of God's infinite love toward us again. He alone is the hope that gives us life. Celebrating Christmas has no meaning other than accept the Word of God is Jesus and making it present in our world.

" to God no one has ever seen ". Only Jesus has made him known. Certainly we talked much about God, but we have not seen, ie, we have no inner experience of God. Only Jesus has made known only to us Face has expressed love and compassion for all. Our life takes in the full sense.

We turn to Him and said: Thou hast loved us so much you come to us " for everyone who believes in you have eternal life ." Your Birth, Lord, is the best news we hear, which fills our life with joy.

Kenmore 80 Series Washer Basket Removal

Christmas - Christmas Eve 2010

CHRISTMAS - NIGHT GOOD 2010

" I bring you the good news of great joy for all people"

you is born a Savior. " Lc (2.1 to 14).

; This is the great joy announced to the shepherds in Bethlehem, which Christians celebrate on this night: that God has Indeed one of us and has come to live our own lives and their love is forever with us. This week is especially bright: we celebrate the birth of the true Life.

The Gospel says that " the glory of the Lord shone around them ". On this night, the light overcame the darkness. The dark night is turned into light that surrounds them. When man looks deep into himself, God appears as a Light allows you to discover her own mystery, the mystery in his heart. For Christians, Christmas is the Festival of Lights, a light that God has kindled in the midst of humanity. This light illuminates all darkness and meaningful human life.

What the glow Your Birth, Lord, light up the night of our world and the night of our heart. May the force your love destroy all injustice and violence.

The story of the birth of Jesus is given by the angel's announcement to the shepherds " I bring you the good news of great joy for all people you is born a Savior."

This announcement to the shepherds is for all human beings. Pastors are the first recipients of the Good News of salvation. The shepherds were at that time a class negligible. Pastors represent the most marginalized of society. And it turns out, the first message of hope and joy, is aimed at them. God has a predilection for small, the poor and those without. No one is excluded from the joy of Christmas but we feel we come from poor or injured for life ...

All are invited to be enveloped in the cloak of tenderness and grace of Christmas and allow ourselves to be enlightened by the clarity of this night. Also this ad is for all of us on this Christmas Eve: " you is born a Savior ." This today, God save us always. In this " today" is present the full and definitive life that God offers everyone. " Today" is the right time when God gives us as good news, as joy and peace for all.

" Today, I was born a Savior. " This week the time it opens to the eternal, for you, Jesus, you were born between us. With your birth you have made the human time a " today" of salvation ... You has sanctified the days, years, centuries. You, Lord, have dispelled our fears, has renewed our hope and has filled the world with joy.

This Christmas, Jesus, through the angel's announcement, we repeated all: " Fear not, I bring you good news of great joy for the people ...". "will embrace this great joy in the silence of our hearts? As the Brother Alois, in his Letter from Chile: "the joy of the heart, this is your life, let sadness. "

The Gospel story tells how poetic angels sang that night in Bethlehem: "Glory to God in the heaven and on earth peace to those whom God love. "God loves all human beings ... our thirst to be loved , is satisfied in this week." God is Love. "God loved the world in Christ and in Him, in His birth, has revealed to all mankind the path of peace. But how can peace be without genuine solidarity between peoples?

Given this Child lying in a manger, our sense of communion and solidarity would cover tonight, to all men and women of this land marked by sadness, poverty and unemployment, all those represented on the shepherds of Bethlehem. On this night, our hearts are anxious and worried about the deep economic crisis affecting our world and particularly the poorest. It is precisely in these days cherished Christmas, we celebrate the One who was born in a manger poor, when we realize the existence of poverty, whose numbers are too disturbing. Nearly 20% of the population English is currently living below the relative poverty threshold. Many have lost their jobs and many who work do so in precarious, with "garbage contracts."

The Christmas celebrate is a call for solidarity and peace among all humans. Christians can not celebrate this party, forgetting all those men and women for whom Christmas will not be cause for celebration, but something that will remind you more crudely loneliness, old age, their sufferings and poverty. We can not just look at the Child lying in the manger, forgetting the obligation to bear witness. We need, as the shepherds of Bethlehem, quicker return to our path. Joyful return to the grotto of Bethlehem to tell everyone: We have found the Light and Life!

; We welcome you, Lord, with joy, light shining in the night of our world. Heal us from our indifference. To our knowledge make our lives a gift, as you are gift to us in life. Give us the happiness that remains beyond the favorable or adverse circumstances, every moment, born of the certainty of being loved for You . Your star, Jesus, light the darkness of the world and turn us back to hope.

Bishop Willy Pino: Christmas Message

WILFREDO PINE BISHOP'S MESSAGE ESTÉVEZ,

BISHOP OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH GUANTANAMO-Baracoa

OCCASION OF CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR 2011

Dear sons and daughters: What a joy for me, your bishop, have a new opportunity to say a few words of encouragement and love and to congratulate them on Christmas and New Year! Today is Christmas Eve, and tomorrow: Christmas.

From now on, I wish the phrase known as "New year, new life" reality in each one of us. Despite concerns about the future we all want start the year and know clean the house and things in our lives, and that everyone, all of Cuba, do not repeat mistakes in order to grow into maturity. Hopefully, in these days, wish us (as they say) "who has health, nothing else matters" , consider not only physical health but also in other health, of the soul. For what we have achieved if at the end of life "healthy" (though the pressure, vision, cholesterol, or heart, lungs, hemoglobin ...) the Lord said: "Depart from me because you do not I know " (Mt. 25, 12). Hopefully not forget what he warned us "What do you use to a man to gain the whole world at the end of his life loses his soul? " (Mt. 16, 26).

welcome Christmas this year after the passage of the pilgrim image of Our Lady of Charity for our province.

· ; I think we will not forget in a long time that Pilgrim walked a thousand miles in our Diocese and she the same "sailed" by a mountain river rose more than 760 feet above the sea level.

· We will not forget the more than 80 roadside stops or have crossed the river 55 steps

· also not forget the receptions in each community with its unique initiatives

· We will not never forget those communities that were scheduled to receive the Virgin but the poor condition of roads made it impossible.

· not forget how it was possible pilgrimage to the Virgin 173 communities and 39 others could be how the pilgrims and get them to where the holy image.

· I forget so many flowers, candles and prayers, so many offerings, smiles, tears, applause and songs, many sacraments received many blessings ordered, many photos, many Cuban flags, many hymns sung, so fond of a town of its patron, its protective!

· remember for a long time that Rosario de la Aurora , next to Faro de Maisi, which pray for the suffering people of Haiti.

· We are not easily erased from the mind the presence of the Pilgrim in hospitals, cemeteries, places of work, iconic rivers in the province, Nursing Homes, houses of sick, maternity homes, the combined prison at Guantanamo, and his affection towards his visit to mambises Mambisa Mausoleum.

Many who listen to me and who were present at the receptions to the Virgin remember the promises we made to Mother of all Cubans.

· She promised to be better fathers, better mothers, better husbands, better wives, better children, better brothers, better neighbors, better coworkers, or study, a better Christian ...

· She promised not to let ourselves be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good ...

· She promised to make do with those who do not speak ...

· She promised never call "crazy" to a pregnant woman, or "turkey" who refused to take something that was not theirs ...

· She promised to meet the 10 commandments of the law of God, lying, stealing, not killing, not wanting a husband or wife of another person, etc.. ...

· She promised to convey the teachings of God to children and grandchildren ...

· She promised not to be "street light and dark of our house" ...

· She promised to have a clear conscience and not to approve anything that is faulty.

Before this holy image, farewell Mass in our diocese, we thanked everyone who helped the smooth conduct of pilgrimage : For the reporters and photographers at 60 missionaries who came from Camaguey, led by their archbishop, to give us a hand to the two Missionaries of Charity of Mother Teresa of Calcutta who came from Santiago; to priests, deacons and religious, the many lay people who worked, the drivers and, in particular, to Armando, the driver of the truck of the Virgin ; to provincial authorities, municipal and local, and, of course, our good God for having chosen Mary as Mother of his Son Jesus Christ (Luke 1, 31) and habérnosla delivered as our Mother (John 19, 27). To her, the Virgin of Charity, who loved the Cuban people before we had the Cuban flag, anthem and coat and Cuba Cuba was also the day we thanked and said goodbye to our proverbial greeting: "Virgin: THIS is your house! And come back whenever you want!"

Dear sons and daughters: It is said that next year, not just Cubans will not be an easy year. If that happened, it would be a good opportunity to appeal our spiritual reservoir, for "bottoming out" on the foundations of our faith and, again, look at Jesus Christ and follow his example. He was born in a country with difficulties, he chose a poor family; had no more than "four things" materials (Matt. 8, 20), did not fall into the temptation of doing what many asked her to use their influence on the people to remove up to the Roman occupiers, warned that the man need not only bread (Mt 4, 4); lived borrows things: a donkey (Luke 19, 30), a house ( Mc. 14, 14); know taught daily trust in God asking not the bread of the week, but every day (Luke 11, 3); eliminated the offense as a defense (Jn. 18, 22-23), and violence as a solution to problems (Jn . 18.11; Lc. 9, 54); taught to forgive "seventy times seven", that is, always (Mt 18, 22), said he had to "give to God what is God and to Caesar what is Caesar's "(Mt. 22, 21), healed the leprosy of the body (Mt 8.2) but we talked about other leprosy worse, our sin-sick soul (John 8, 34), we were asked to blindly trust our Father God, who cares about feeding the birds and make flowers bloom every day of the field, but, above all, cares about us, their children, who, in his words, are worth more than birds and flowers (Lk 12, 27-30) ...

Cuban As Christians we are called at all times, and especially now, to awaken dormant consciences, to be sowers of hope. Let us ask God to be people who have the virtue of hope. the hope of a believer is different from the world's hope. Christian hope is one that is grounded in God is the Father who loves us and forgive us, that Jesus Christ is the friend who never fails and who died and rose again to save us, and that the Holy Spirit is our strength and support. Without the Christian hope, men do not know where to go, nor understand who they are. As a priest friend wrote: "Hope is the only force that can keep us when our legs are strong." The Lebanese poet Khalil Gibran said that the hope must be always there where it costs, because "no matter how long the storm, the sun always shines again in the clouds." I think this is a poetic way of saying that it's true that our forefathers taught us Cubans "Whenever it rains, it clears." The truth is that there are hopeless people around us. difficulties materials are overwhelming. Fortunately, many want to work, want to grow, and want more facilities to do so. Let us pray that the Holy Spirit enlighten those who have the potential solutions in their hands and these aspirations be realized. Hopefully, as people, as a church and a people, we learn the lessons God is trying to teach these situations that we face.

pray that in the next year, Cubans know and preserve everything beautiful that we have: the spark, the initiatives, the occurrences, the love of God and the Virgin of Charity , attachment to family and the Cuban land, the the children love and joy. Do not let die the good and beautiful in us. A custom very nice that we have managed to keep between us is that, at Christmas and New Year, we welcome each other. "Congratulations," they say and say. And that is charming, because the word "congratulations" comes from Latin and means "happy" . Can you imagine how different would this world, Cuba, Guantánamo, Baracoa all our communities, our families, if each proposed compliment, or bring happiness to those around you? ... if everyone is dedicated to think less about his own happiness to the pursuit of happiness of others? ... "If husbands and wives mutually say" I want to make you happy "? If we do this, there will be Christmas. I hope that this Christmas we open our hearts to Jesus Christ. Hopefully this Christmas forgiving heart who has offended us. Hopefully this Christmas joy to the heart of a sick old man or a Nursing Home.

I would also like that this Christmas blessing impart them down now especially the sick, prisoners, the disabled, those living alone, who are away from their families and their land Cuban those who suffer, those who feel sad, grieving the recent death of a loved one, and those who have lost the virtue of hope. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!, They want their bishop, who now bless them. May the blessing of Almighty God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit descend upon you and be with you today, tomorrow and forever. Amen! ;

Below Knee Length Black Dress

Fourth Sunday of Advent Third Sunday of Advent

; FOURTH SUNDAY OF CYCLE ADVIENTO A.

" Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife .. ." (Mt 1, 18-24).

These are the words of the angel to Joseph ... Today these words are also addressed to each one of us. We need to hear this message: "Do not be afraid ." is an invitation not to be afraid and to embrace the life that God offers us .

The situation that is Joseph, is a puzzling situation of confusion and doubt ... is that " before living together, Mary was with child." How can it be? " Joseph was good and would not denounce away quietly decide." For some the sense of the reaction of Joseph (not living with Mary) not the result of suspicion of Mary's pregnancy, but wonder at the mystery of God, how could I live with someone in whom God has made this so special.

Jose is in a difficult situation , and in this situation is when the angel intervenes (which represents the closeness of God in our lives). It does in dreams ... What you get in sleep is an invitation to live life free from the fear . "Do not be afraid to take Mary, because the creature in it, from the Holy Spirit." Jose has to overcome his own fear, their feeling of unworthiness and smallness.

These words of the angel to Joseph are now also addressed to each of us ... " not be afraid, do not be afraid to open up to life, which God gives you ... Do not be afraid, have no resistance do not choke the life of your being ... Fear is the root of every flight, do not listen to fear, but the call of God to live in trust.

We must recognize that often , we find fears , confused, stopped in our path, going round and round and, deciding like Joseph, withdraw, distancing, escape from ourselves, or fall into the temptation of distrust and discouragement, the compensation of any kind to relieve our anxiety. Is when we need to listen well the "angel" in all of us and resolve our situation of darkness, " do not be afraid to take Mary ." She carries a full life, Jesus, that needs to be welcomed into our hearts.

Today, we are invited to out of our fears and our hesitations.

And the foundation of this call to live without fear is that " the Virgin gives birth to a son and shall call his name Emmanuel " (which means God with us) . From our faith we realize that God is in the heart of our life, in the depths of our being and our human history, sharing our problems and aspirations, making solidarity of all human beings, He is the claims, in short, our hope, his name is Emmanuel, which means God with us.

Yes, God is present in our lives , that means Emmanuel, God is with us. He remains with us today, God . God is closer to you than you can imagine, He is there where you are, as long as you open the Mystery, the Holy Spirit as Mary, Joseph ...

Being Christian is not believing that God exists, think of something or someone from a distance holds mysterious creation. Being a Christian is to discover with joy that "God is with us ." The inaccessible God has become human and love and tenderness surrounding us. This is the profound certainty that frees us from fear. If God is with us there is nothing to fear, our life is guaranteed. It is possible a future of peace and hope for ourselves and our world.

"When Joseph woke up, did what he had sent the angel of the Lord and took home to his wife " . Jose responds with great joy and confidence to the invitation of the angel and took Mary home. What would have been lost, had reacted negatively. We also need to listen to our inner invitations and respond (like Joseph) to these invitations inside and being prisoners of our situation. Are we coherent with our invitations indoors? Are we obedient to the call of "angel" within us?

we on the threshold of concluding Christmas: in each of us can be born God can birth a new life, hope and joy. In each and every one of us can befall a real Christmas.

That will open the doors of our home this Christmas. Our prayer can be today: Lord Jesus, You are Good News, You are Emmanuel (God with us), we thank you for continuing to save us every day and staying with us. not be afraid to welcome you in our hearts.

Raven Riley Kates Playground Planetsuzy



Sunday ADVIENTO III. A. CYCLE

" you who have come or have to wait for another? " (Mt 11, 2-11).

This is the question John Jesus. It is a fundamental question that makes Juan Jesus and that still stands for all of us today.

is important to contemplate in silence the scene: John is a prisoner in jail Machaerous (for accusing Herod immorality) and we hear of the "proceedings" of Jesus and begins to feel doubt to see that things are not going as he had announced. John begins to worry. Neither the person nor the message of Jesus and his works will convince at all ... And John is in crisis and needs to be clarified. Did it wrong to proclaim that Jesus was the one everyone expected? So to find out for sure sends two disciples to Jesus to propose a question:

" you who had to come or we have to wait for another ? " We too can ask Jesus: "Thou art the hope that all ? Are You you can answer as many questions as we carry in our hearts? Art thou that can calm our deeper concern? Where can we find meaning in our lives, in you or the other? Is it true that you can "rejoice in the wilderness and the wilderness" as Isaiah says today? Yes, this question is still alive ... Who has come for more than half of humanity will not starve at the indifference of many? Who has come to prevent the start of the third millennium, the violence and war in our land? Are You, Lord, who can fill the deepest aspiration of our hearts?

Jesus' answer to John's disciples is clear and convincing : "Go to tell John what you hear and see: the blind see and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear ... "

Jesus' response indicates that he is the bringer release humanity. The gesture that best discovers his true identity is his job to cure, to heal and to free life. If anything characterizes the person of Jesus is his passionate love life, Jesus reveals himself waking life, health and sense.

This is the challenge that we also have Christians today to announce the Gospel: we live in a world seduced by ambition and power of having, but not happy. The proclamation of the Gospel can bring hope to our world liberating enslaved by idols of having and power.

"Go and announce John what you hear and see . "In other words, is to proclaim the liberating experience of God in our lives, say what you hear and see.

; Today we, we ask ourselves what are we seeing and hearing? What is our Life experience do we have the experience of the blind open their eyes to Light that is Christ? Have we seen deaf begin to hear the Word which gives life? "We also have experience of pulling our crutches and move along the paths of liberty? Do we know what it is to rise from the dead and experiencing real life? "We have found in Him in the Face of the Risen the beginning of a new life that we can renew every day?

Jesus says: " happy who takes no offense at m í" . The God revealed in Jesus, the God of tenderness and life, you can also cheat and shock. There are people who have made God in his "image" for the world and want to give that image of God. So Jesus says: " happy who takes no offense at me ." Jesus really does not leave anyone indifferent approach of heart to Him When we come to Him we find someone who lives in truth, anyone who knows how to live and how. Jesus' passion for life reveals our superficiality and our conventions. His ardent love exposes our selfishness and mediocrity. His truth reveals our delusions. His experience of the Father invites us to trust.

That today we turn our eyes to Him, the Risen , at the invitation of the prophet Isaiah (Is 35, 1-6.10): "Behold your God coming in person to all people bring salvation" . Yes, Jesus, God comes in person on this earth for all mankind to live and feel loved. He comes to meet us.

This third Sunday of Advent is called "Sunday of Joy " because, in the liturgy is an invitation to joy as we heard from Isaiah: " the desert and the desert shall rejoice ... rejoice with joy and gladness ". What Christians have done with joy? Why Why not contagious joy and hope? The Gospel is a message of joy and hope for all: That lepers rejoice because He heals our wounds. Rejoice that the oppressed because he breaks the chains. Rejoice that the burdened for life, because He comes to free us from our burdens and our dollars. Glad to be blind because He is our Light. Glad that all those who feel vulnerable, because He is our fortress, " Strengthen the weak hands, strengthen the feeble knees, Say to the fearful heart," Be strong, fear not. "

we welcome everyone in this next Christmas, because he fills with light and our life meaning at all find The Life, the Source of our life and our joy.

May we say, "Come, Lord Jesus, you who bring peace and joy to the world.
