Readings for Dec 24

The first reading:  The Messiah will be a descendant of King David. He will be a king

Responsorial Psalm: Praise God for the coming Messiah-King

Gospel:  Zechariah's famous prayer The Benedictus, summing up the human family's longing, 
on this Christmas Eve, for the birth of the Messiah

Reflection:
Zechariah's words beautifully sum up the meaning of Christmas:
In the tender compassion of our God
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.


Prayer: Jesus, son of Mary, Light of the World, please shine brightly this Christmas
in our hearts, in our families, in our world
