Tuesday, December 6, 2011: (St. Nicholas)
Jesus said: “My people, you have heard many stories about St. Nicholas in helping people. Your modern day Santa Claus is a version of this original story. The thought of sharing gifts with the young children has come down through many generations. Even though the children later learn of Santa’s helpers, they welcome any gifts at any age. Gift giving at Christmas is always a nice celebration for My birthday, but some people focus too much on the shopping. It should all be done in a generous spirit in moderation without excesses. You should remember to focus on My coming at Bethlehem as the main event, and not just the gift giving. Even sharing gifts with the poor would please Me more. As you come to My crib at Christmas, bring Me your prayers, works, and worship as well. Rejoice in this celebration of My infancy with your novena prayers.”http://www.johnleary.com/index.php/2011/12/09/tuesday-december-6-2011/
