Each bead we say lights up the way to Bethlehem’s star, which guides our day. Leading up to Christmas is always so busy. Decorations, present shopping, invitations to all the different events and sometimes it feels like it’s
burdensome.
A great way to stay centered on Christ this year is to pray the daily
rosary. It in many ways is like going over to Mama Mary’s house for
some hot tea, coffee or hot cocoa whichever you prefer, and flipping
through old photo albums with her she’ll point to each picture and share
with you her insights on what took place at that time.
Through each mystery you grow closer to her son Jesus. In the
Advent season we have a longing for Jesus, a time of Holy Waiting and
by visiting Mary everyday that yearning for his arrival will be stronger.
The best comfort is knowing we have our Lady by our side knowing she
will always guide us to Christ. No Mary No Jesus, Know Mary Know
Jesus!!. Merry Christmas!
