O Holy Night, the stars are brightly shining; it is the night of our dear Savior's birth.
Jesus came to bring light into the world. How can we prepare our hearts as we await His birth? How can we bring light into our hearts? We can go and visit Him, as the shepherds were the first to do. Where can we visit Him? We can stop into a church or chapel and sit before the tabernacle. Jesus is there waiting for you. We can go to Eucharistic Adoration. Jesus is present on the altar, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. What happens when we sit with Him during Eucharistic Adoration? Jesus pours His light and love into our hearts. He prepares our hearts for His coming. Do you want to have a heart prepared for Jesus on Christmas morning? He is waiting for you to come to receive the beautiful Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining, 'til He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
My pastor spoke of these words and how beautiful it is to meditate on the words of Christmas songs. When you are in sin and error, come to Jesus in Confession. When you have an encounter with Him in this beautiful Sacrament, your soul will feel its worth. If you have not been to confession in a while, ask Our Lady to accompany you. She is your beautiful and loving Mother and she will help you. The priest will welcome you and he will help you, if you do not remember what to do. Run to Jesus and pour out your heart to Him. You will receive forgiveness, mercy, healing and peace. He will pour out His Light and Love upon you.
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Jesus is the Light of the World. Open your heart and let Him shine His Light upon you, let him love you and heal you. He is waiting for you to come away with Him and He will give you rest...
Fall on your knees and hear the angel voices. O night Divine, O night when Christ was born. O night Divine, O night, O night Divine.
