Merry Christmas and Happy Feast of the Holy Family! (though I think my blog posts usually post the day after.)
It is a beautiful time of year, as we continue through the Christmas Octave, and prepare our resolutions for the New Year. There is something awe-striking but also mysterious, as we meditate on the life of the holy family. What was it like to be the mother/father of Jesus Christ Himself? We can pray to Our Lady "Blessed are you among women!" as we ponder her motherhood. To Joseph, to pray that our fathers may be good, holy fathers. We hear so little from either parent in the Bible, yet their example rings out during those first days of Our Lord's life on earth.
I pray that all families may be blessed with the wisdom and knowledge of the Holy Family, who always sought out God's will and perfect charity.
