The season of Advent
is drawing to a close with only 9 days to go…. That means in no time at all it
will be Christmas. With all the hustle and bustle of preparing ourselves
materially, let us not miss out on our spiritual preparation to receive Jesus
worthily in our Hearts this Christmas.
9 days to go…………
Every valley shall be filled and every mountain shall be brought
low…..
A farmer takes the
utmost care to prepare his field for planting the crops. He weeds it out,
ploughs the soil, breaks down the lumps and makes the soil loose enough to
accept the seed. The soil in its turn accepts the seed and makes a comfortable
atmosphere for it by providing it with all the necessary nourishment. Let us on
this first day of the novena take up the virtue of acceptance from soil. Let us
prepare ourselves by tilling the soil of our hearts, making it soft and rich so
that our Lord Jesus may find it very good for Him to be born there this
Christmas.
