Special Advent Greetings

Glory to Jesus Christ!

I would like take this opportunity to wish all of my Barnabite confreres a Blessed and Peaceful Advent season of joy and peace and we await the coming of that glorious Child who comes to sav us!

Lord God! I praise you, thank You for the gift of being your child! You are my Heavenly Father! You created me, You sustain my life. You want me to live, for Your prolong my life. You wish me happiness and I wish it. I accept from Your hands everything that You send me, and what You wish to give me. I thank you for everything, and repent of my faults.

Lord, I don't want to be a failure. I want to be Your child in the great Divine family. Lord, give me strength to fulfill that to which You are calling me. Lord God, I am Yours! I give you the keys to my heart. I entrust to You my total self, my life and my eternity. Jesus, I am Yours. Guide me. Let Your Spirit always remain in me and with me. Jesus, I give you my heart; fill it with love. Gift me with your love, so that I can share it with others. Jesus, I entrust myself to your mercy and trust in your love for me.
