From Today's Gospel.

"When the time arrived for Elizabeth to have her child she gave birth to a son. Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown his great mercy toward her, and they rejoiced with her.". LK 1:57-66


Wait! Did you hear that? "When the time arrived..." it says. There is a time for everything under the sun remember Eccl.3:1. The time for many things in our lives; we do not know, yet in this season of memories; one cannot but ruminate with nostalgia some times in our lives when we couldn't just wait for "the time" to arrive....How does the priest in his silver jubilee feel; when he recalls what he felt for the bishop the time his ordination was differed by six months? How does the mother of three in a ten year old marriage feel; when she recalls what she felt for her parents in the restrictions and sanctions during her adolescence? How does a husband of fifteen years with a loving wife feel; when he recalls what he felt some nights in school living beside a neighbor who was cohabiting? What could be going through the mind of a well earning worker; when the worker remembers the many times Christmas had met him unemployed? What does it feel like to that 39yrs old sister I know, that got wedded this season; when she recalls what she's felt for God and men in the past 18yrs or so? Ah...na wa o, some of us will definitely unconsciously begin the mea culpa as they recall the past, for in our desperation, several regrettable feelings, thoughts and actions took place. Yet, when the time arrived everything fell in place, for God makes all things beautiful in HIs time Eccl.3:11. Indeed beloved brethren, oge Chukwu ga-asuru gi ohia, o gaghi ekwe umu uwa nghota. Just like the neighbors of Elizabeth and Zachariah, your neighbors will marvel and rejoice with you.

From Today's Gospel.

Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; for he has come to his people and set them free. He has raised up for us a mighty Savior, born of the house of his servant David. Through his prophets he promised of old that he would save us from our enemies, from the hands of all who hate us.He promised to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant. This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to set us free from the hand of our enemies, free to worship him without fear, holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life". LK 1:67-79

Am not saying a thing on this, I'm just gonna let you savor the rendition, as you go about today's frenzied preparations. May your travel, shopping, cleaning, cooking...and indeed all your activities of today; geared towards a splendid Christmas, be successfully accomplished to the glory of God. May His presence ever be by your side.

Good morning brethren, a splendid day ahead to all.

From Today's Reading.

O my dove in the clefts of the rock, in the secret recesses of the cliff, Let me see you, let me hear your voice, For your voice is sweet, and you are lovely.”Songs 2:8-14

There's a feeling in the air at this period of advent, ChineloSA dear do you notice it? An ambiance that inspires love. SalC dear one, the nights are cool, seasonal birds are back and their melodies fill the air. Jnrbayano bro, everywhere reminds you of parks and gardens with Christmas trees and accompanying decorations all around. Auntie debbie, It's a time that brings back lovely nostalgic memories of a period; a time of fraternal exchanges, abundant merriment, first love thrills, youthful adventures up to more recent recollections. Kamsified nne, smiles are everywhere handy; with gifts not far away, especially at sales outlets. Music from the sound boxes are particularly soft and joyful and the message of peace is rendered by almost all who mount the speakers, Rich4god, nwanne no be true? It's a time people plan to look their best and there's a boom for the fashionistas, mariagorreti, omalicha i greet you. What sort of love is it that does not display its affection in this time, in words, material exchanges or physical presence, Peppyluv02 ada oma, o kwa ihe ekwuru ka a na eme? Indeed, indeed there's love in the air, and Christ the Saviour is caught up in it, Jennydoris. You know what; Chikk nwanyi oma, He through whom and for whom the world was created, but who chose to be born in a manger for the purpose of drawing you closer to Him, is hit also by the bug of love in the air at this time. Ubenedictus, I remain Loyal o. Jesus is in a relationship with you, aye, with your soul. Aizenosa, beloved bro I hail. Will there be a display of affection between your soul and Him in this season of love?HurricaneChris bro, Hush! Listen quietly, eyes on the red fonts above, and hear the soft melodious voice saying: "Let me see you, let me hear your voice", Have you met Him at the confessional, did He hear your voice there? Babestell asa be anyi, did you look for Him in the poor,did He hear your voice giving alms and doing good? btoks dear brethren, I salute you. Egovinmma, Sunshine I ask again, what manner of love resists display at such a season? The Lord calls us to Himself at this time, OZAOKPE my brother, I send greetings. He yearns for a display of our love, Italo my beloved bro, respect sir. He wants to display His to us and looks forward to receiving ours. FrancisTony bro, how you dey. Stunningjudy dearie, its a time of unprecedented favour from Christ, the love of your soul. He waits for you, blurange, he says "Your voice is sweet, and you are lovely".

Good morning brethren, A splendid day ahead to you all.

Thanks for this piece. Lent season leading to Easter is too sober for us not to prepare our souls for it. On the other hand, Christmas doesn't have such hence we easily get carried away by looks n food etc.
Thanks for the reminder. Always nice to have people that keep us in check

Syncan you will make a great poet, what say ya? smiley

Yes the air is filled with so much love so to say but am afraid some of us only know the purpose in words and not indeed.

A lot of people are more interested in the type of cloths, shoes and hairdo they will be wearing than they are of the kind of heart they will be presenting before God as we commemorate the birth that brought us grace and salvation.

I recall, during lent we always chant the 'tear your hearts and not your cloth' can we not chant the 'Purify your hearts and not your wears' this season too.

Most times I see so many cases of misplaced priorities. A season that is supposed to be a joyful one has been turned to the 'I must make it or die' season.

Growing up, we usual feel eager and look forward to the Christmas confession in our parish. You see our youths troop out for Christmas confession. We wanted to welcome the new born king with a pure heart. But today, that lovely culture of the youth is gradually fading away....God help us.


Well I won't still forget the joy and love spread in this season, positive! Positive they are. It's already being spread and we too should join the train. Let's look around and there must be someone we can put a smile on his or her face individually or collectively. Let's not hesitate to do so.

May the birth we await also bring us the renewal of our hearts and minds. May it also bring us untold joy , blessings and immeasurable favour through Christ our Lord.

Good morning brethren and do have a love filled day ahead smiley
It's because we've turned the season to a time to show off our achievements during the year.
That's humans for you. I belonged to church group(not catholic) sometime ago and we met once a year for a convention. Such a beautiful reunion and can be quite refreshing spiritually.
But before u know it, it became an avenue to show off our husbands, wives, kids, cars, money etc and before you know it, those that lack these things will not want to come again defeating the primary purpose of the convention.

That's what we get for placing a premium on material achievements

Amen to the prayers
