What Good Is It That Christ Was Born?
Meister Eckhart once said: ‘What good is it that Christ was born 2,000 years ago if he is not born now in your heart?”
We may believe in God, but do we believe in God-in-us? We may believe in God in heaven, but do we believe in God-on-earth? We may believe in God out there, but do we believe in God-with-us?
Lord, be born again in our hearts. Come alive in us this Christmas day that we too might bring joy to the world and peace on earth!
God, may YOU grant us the light of Christmas, which is hope.
The warmth of Christmas, which is love.
The radiance of Christmas, which is purity.
The righteousness of Christmas, which is justice.
The belief in Christmas, which is truth.
The ALL of Christmas, which is CHRIST.
