SOLEMNITY OF THE HOLY FAMILY; SOLEMNITY OF THE HUMBLE SHEPHERDS

/ From the Pastor, Parish Life / By

Today we celebrate the solemnity of the Holy Family and also the feast of the Humble Shepherds. The feast of the Holy Family is very meaningful for us today. We see the crisis of the Families today and we need a new pattern and power of love for our own Families. This is the reason that the Church offers us the good example of the Holy Family, where the obedience and the love is the priority.

From the other hand the feast of the Humble Shepherds concentrate our caution on our mission – to be the apostles of Jesus Christ our Savior in our modern world.

The Eucharist is like the meeting of the shepherds with the Baby Jesus, His Mother and Joseph. Here and now we get the wisdom of our heavenly Childhood.

“ Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many…”

One Main Point

The Lord has come as promised to save all peoples.

Reflections

  1. Simeon’s life was satisfied by seeing Jesus. What am I looking for in this life? What would satisfy me?
  2. What do the people around me consider as their goal, their satisfaction, or their salvation, by the way they live? How much does that influence me?
