“Today as you pray in preparation for the holy day of Christmas, reflect on the ways you have tried to come closer to Me throughout the day, and the year. Every present moment presents a time to be holier than the last moment. So many moments are wasted by merely seeking self-satisfaction. When Joseph and Mary journeyed to Bethlehem, they prayed in their hearts along the way – always focusing on My Will and how they were to serve it.”
“Too often, My children, your attention is drawn to self and what is best for you in the world. Remember, the life you have in the world is only temporary. Do not waste time trying to enjoy your earthly existence. Rather, prepare for your eternal life with much prayer and many sacrifices and all your heart.”
