Readings: Today
let's use the special
before-Christmas readings: Dec 18
The first reading:
A reminder that the Israelites were saved/rescued
from exile in Babylon
as well as saved/rescued
from slavery in Egypt
Responsorial Psalm:
The coming Messiah will save/rescue
the poor
Gospel: The name "Jesus" means "God saves"!
Reflection:
The baby born at Christmas is the Saviour/Rescuer
of the world,
who saves us from every sort of modern Egyptian slavery (e.g. drugs)
and Babylonian exile (e.g. fear/depression)
Prayer: Jesus,
Saviour, please rescue people caught up in drugs,
and please help people who are oppressed by fear and depression
