The light of Christ

“The light that the world offers us is an artificial light, strong, perhaps (though that of Jesus is stronger, eh!), strong like a firework, like a flash of photography. Instead, the light of Jesus is a mild light, it is a quiet light, it is a light of peace, it’s like the light on Christmas night: without pretense.” — Pope Francis

The media, blogs, newspapers, radio, music, etc…all try to guide and direct our thoughts and behavior. Make room for the light of Christ to penetrate! Clear the clutter in your heart, fill your soul with his word in Scripture and his presence in the Eucharist…and allow the light and the peace of Christ reign in your heart!
