December 20 - St. Dominic of Silos

Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.

Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus.

He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end" (Luke 1: 30-33).

God becoming a man, becoming a little baby. How awesome is that? We often take this for granted and we forget about Him even during the Christmas season. Not this year. Jesus, Advent and Christmas are for celebrating you.

Jesus, help me to be a good witness for you.
