At At Christmas God shows His fidelity and inaugurates a new Kingdom, which gives a new Hope to humanity.
And what is this Hope?
Eternal life....
Look at Mary, Mother of Hope.
With her "Yes" she opened the door of our world to God: her girl's heart was full of hope, all animated by faith; and so God chose her and she believed in his word....
Christmas will be truly a celebration if we receive Jesus, seed of hope that God deposits in the furrows of our personal and communal history.
Every "Yes" to Jesus who comes is a seed of hope.
Let us have confidence in this seed of hope, in this yes:
"Yes, Jesus, you can save me, you can save me."
Pope Francis
