The Lord is with us. What is there for us to lack. The story of Jesus birth has never been glossed over except by sinful mockers. In Nazareth Jesus was always known as the woodworker's son. Both Mary and Joseph knew the truth for both had said "Yes" to God. 

God takes on the humanity of the "The House of David", a royal line, and the humility of a manual worker for God makes no distinction as regards to class; we are all his well beloved and we all have equally been saved by his Incarnation leading to his Passion and Resurrection.

Today we are living through the darkness of  a Northern winter but waiting joyfully to celebrate our Saviour's birth. How can it be that his own people who have been returned after centuries to their homeland not only reject the Son but most of them deny the Father from whom they have been given so much of the proof their ancestors demanded from Jesus the man in Palestine so long ago.

Dear Lord let this day and all my remaining days proceed in a way pleasing to you. Please accept my worship of Father Son and Holy Spirit and accept the prayers of Mary, Joseph and all the saints in heaven and on earth.
