Blog Post 1/09/2024 - Ordinary Time “The Work of Christmas Commences”

 

Ordinary Time “The Work of Christmas Commences”

Dr. Howard Thurman wrote these beautiful and powerful words,

“When the song of the angels is stilled,

When the star in the sky is gone,

When the kings and 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

(and sisters),

To make music in the heart.  (Sick, and You cared for Me, Homilies & reflections for Cycle B)

Do the work of Christ all year.

 

May God Be Praised.
