‘’.....not to forget to take Communion....
Christmas is here....’’
As Christmas Day approaches
these words often come from the lips of some Christians.....
The question is, however, how do they usually come out?
Unfortunately, as a reminder of the many pending tasks
that we have to do during these days of the year.....
Holy Communion has become
an additional activity
between housework, shopping
and paying traffic taxes....
Each Holy Communion
is a personal encounter
of our existence with the sweetest Person of our Christ....
And every loving encounter
has a path, it has effort, it has anguish, it has longing.....
If our heart is not burdened with these,
how do we expect to celebrate Christmas?
You know if we lost our way
to the Bethlehem of our hearts
it is because we forgot
Who and Why was born there.....
We forgot because we didn't care....
Let's fight a little,
not to let the lights of this world
cover the Star that shows us the way
that leads to the cave, to the Divine Infant,
the path called repentance....
Father Ioannis Papadimitriou.
