Today’s Reflection: There are some souls on earth
Which seek in vain for happiness,
But for me, it’s just the opposite.
Joy is in my heart.
This joy is not ephemeral.
I possess it forever.
Like the springtime rose, It smiles at me every day. — St. Therese of Lisieux, French Carmelite (1873–1897)

Today’s Reflection: God of joy,
remind me to rejoice.
Wrapped up in my Christmas gifts,
tied down in my debts,
I have forgotten.
God of peace,
remind me of your calm.
In my anxiety
and in my haste,
I have forgotten.
God of all,
remind me
of the true light of Christmas,
of your gift shared.
In my own wants
and in my own needs
I have forgotten.
Wrapped up in my little world,
remind me of your world.
God of joy, remind me
to rejoice. Amen. – Linda Jones/CAFOD
