Christmas Day
Almighty God and Father of light, a Child is born to us, a Son is given to us. Your eternal Word came down from heaven in the silent watches of the night, and now we are filled with wonder at the glory of our God. Open my heart to receive His life, that I may be filled with His glory and peace. Amen.
Luke 2:15-20
When the angels went away from them to heaven,
the shepherds said to one another,
“Let us go, then, to Bethlehem
to see this thing that has taken place,
which the Lord has made known to us.”
So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph,
and the infant lying in the manger.
When they saw this,
they made known the message
that had been told them about this child.
All who heard it were amazed
by what had been told them by the shepherds.
And Mary kept all these things,
reflecting on them in her heart.
Then the shepherds returned,
glorifying and praising God
for all they had heard and seen,
just as it had been told to them.

Navidad
Dios Todopoderoso y Origen de Luz, Nace una Creatura entro nosotros, nos das a Tu Hijo. Tu Palabra Eterna bajo del cielo en el silencio de la noche, y ahora estamos llenos de asombro al ver la Gloria de nuestro Dios. Abre mi corazón para recibir la vida de Él, que pueda ser llenada/llenado de Su gloria y paz. Amén.
Lc 2, 15-20
Cuando los ángeles los dejaron para volver al cielo, los pastores se dijeron unos a otros: “Vayamos hasta Belén, para ver eso que el Señor nos ha anunciado”.
Se fueron, pues, a toda prisa y encontraron a María, a José y al niño, recostado en el pesebre. Después de verlo, contaron lo que se les había dicho de aquel niño, y cuantos los oían quedaban maravillados.
María, por su parte, guardaba todas estas cosas y las meditaba en su corazón. Los pastores se volvieron a sus campos, alabando y glorificando a Dios por todo cuanto habían visto y oído, según lo que se les había anunciado.
