Joyous Christmas Greetings to All the Friends of True Life in God !
Jesus, son of the living God, splendor of the Father,
eternal light, King of glory, radiance of justice,
Son of Mary the Virgin, brighten our day with
the glory of your incarnation !
Luke Chapter 2 1-20 ( King James Version )
Christ Born of Mary
And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.
Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
“Glory in the Highest”
Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.”
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying:
“Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”
So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, “Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us.” And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger. Now when they had seen Him, they made widely known the saying which was told them concerning this Child. And all those who heard it marveled at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart. Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them.
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness – on them a light has shined. For unto us a Child is born; to us a Son is given.
And the government shall be upon His shoulder, and of His peace there will be no end. And His name shall be called the Messenger of Great Counsel, Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace, the Father of the World to Come.
Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now and Forever and to the ages of ages, Amen.

Christmas Day
I shall announce Your Name to my brothers
and praise You in full assembly
whether they like it or not.
“daughter, although many of you do not know the way to Peace and the way to Unity, do not despair; hope in Me, I shall come to comfort you soon; and you, My child, your pleadings have been heard in Heaven by everyone; I shall come to unite you; My Word has been given and My Will shall be carried out; in the meantime summon a nation you never knew and give them the instructions I have given you, and if a ‘sage’ now and then accuses you of calling Me Father, remind him that today a Child is born and His Name is Wonder-Counsellor, Mighty-God, Eternal-Father, and Prince of Peace; 5
Pray for those who call themselves doctors of the Law, that their spirit becomes a humble and poor spirit; pray that all nations come to My Light and that the vengeance eating their hearts be ripped off so that I may wrap their hearts in My Peace; pray that east makes peace with the west and the north with the south; pray that this excessive pride and haughtiness that seized certain shepherds of Mine be replaced by humility; pray that they understand what I have meant by: “Anyone who wants to be great among you must be your servant; and anyone who wants to be first among you must be your slave; yes, just as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many;” 6
imitate Me, your Lord, and you shall live … December 25, 1990)
Jesus, Messenger of the Father,
wonderful interpreter of the Divine Will,
powerful God, Father of future ages,
prince of peace, guide our lives by
the holiness of Your humanness
Jesus, powerful, patient, obedient,
meek and humble of heart,
You love us and want us to be pure of heart,
tell all people about the value of humility
Jesus, Father of the poor,
glorious reward of your faithful,
good shepherd, true light, infinite wisdom,
limitless goodness, our way and our life
give your Church the spirit of poverty (Divine Office)
Lord? I’m at Your service.
I Am; here I am, by your side I stand; put your hope in Me and securely you will stand; oh daughter, tell them, tell them that My Heart is an abyss of Love and Mercy; the Spirit whom I am sending you will remind you of the Truth and that I Am;
listen and write: peace be with you; little children, My delight is in every pure heart; My joy is when I see your eyes seeking only heavenly things; My glory is when you come and tell Me: “here I am …. here I am”, offering your heart to Me to transfigure it into My domain and then reign over it; My magnificence and My splendour are when you keep My sanctuary 1 holy, turning it into a glorious domain for My majesty; My sovereignty is when in your wretchedness and in your poverty you can cry out:
“hosanna! hosanna! to the King who saved us, for eternity!”
