The Third Joyful Mystery: The Nativity of our Lord
A Reflection from Dan Allen, Parishioner
|
The following is the eleventh of twenty monthly reflections about the Mysteries of the Rosary as they relate to family life. The mysteries will not be necessarily chronological but presented as they interact with the liturgical year. For previous installments, click here.
 This particular Advent is memorable to me as we wait for the Christ Child because my wife Stephanie and I also await the birth of our fourth child this spring. It is something that our other children greatly anticipate as well and talk about frequently. Recently, we braved a local restaurant for a public meal with our crew, and my five-year-old Benjamin said something that caught me by surprise. As we sat at the table, he announced without discussion or prompting, "We have six people at our table now." We questioned him further about what he meant, and he explained, "There is Nicholas, Mark, Benjamin, Daddy, Mommy, and the new baby." I marveled at the beauty and simplicity of his statement and remarked to my wife that it is amazing what children could sometimes teach the world. I certainly have learned a great deal from each of my children and have no doubt that our newest addition will do the same. It gives me pause as I reflect on our mystery this month of Jesus' birth. As we celebrate his coming this year, what will this child teach us?

 Because we have heard the stories surrounding his young life so many times, it can be easy to forget the difficult nature of many things Jesus endured at a young age. This month, let such reflection also spur us to action. Reach out to someone in need this time of year, whether it is someone in a crisis pregnancy, without a home, coming from another country, etc. Surely, there were those who helped Jesus in his most vulnerable state, and we can help him again as we see his face in others. |
From December 17-23, we celebrate the "O Antiphons" in the Church's prayer as we count down the final days to Christmas. These different titles given to Jesus highlight the many aspects of his coming and his mission. They are most familiar to us in the hymn O Come, O Come Emmanuel.
