"A light will shine on this day, the Lord is born to us!"

Therese making a birthday card for Baby Jesus... "No one whether shepherd of wise man, can approach God here below except by kneeling before the manger at Bethlehem and adoring him hidden in the weakness of a new-born child."  (CCC 563)
Putting the baby in the manger... "Lord Jesus, as I kneel before your manger in adoration, let my first word be: thank you.  Thank you, Gift of the Father, for coming to save me from my sins."
"May your Presence, Prince of Peace, bless the world with peace, the poor with care and prosperity, and the despairing with hope and confidence, the grieving with comfort and gladness,the oppressed with freedom and deliverance,the suffering with solace and relief.  Loving Jesus, you are the only real joy in every human heart.  I place my trust in you."
