Dr. Howard Thurman wrote these beautiful and penetrating words,
“When the song of the angels is stilled,
When the star in the sky is gone,
When the kings & princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flocks,
The work of Christmas begins:
To find the lost,
To heal the broken hearted,
To feed the hungry,
To release the prisoner,
To rebuild the nations,
To bring peace among brothers (& sisters),
To make music in the heart. (Sick, and You cared for Me, Homilies & reflections for Cycle B)
Herod, the Scribes/Chief Priests, the Shepherds, the Magi, Mary and Joseph made their decision about WHO they would adore, it is now our turn to decide?
May God Be Praised!
Beautiful Dad!!
