Christmas Eve

Luke 2:15

Now the shepherds said to one another: “let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us.”

He is here, pouring out love and goodness – Immanuel is come to us, one of us, Mary’s Son. We respond in our hearts. We go to Bethlehem. Lord Jesus, we would come to you, live our lives for you. Living Lord, renew us with your Spirit.

John 1:14

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we had seen his glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth.
May the word become flesh in our hearts and within our lives, today and always.

Happy Christmas.

 

  • Reflections

    In these daily reflections during Advent we affirm that Christ has come to us, that he is truly present in the world today and that he will come again in awesome power. During this Advent season we celebrate God’s incarnation and we hold on to our hope in his future kingdom.

  • Our Redeemer

    God our redeemer, who prepared the Blessed Virgin Mary to be the mother of your Son; grant that, as she looked for his coming as our saviour, so we may be ready to greet him when he comes again as our judge; who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever
