This is nothing out of the ordinary\u2026 it happens every single time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, even through all this, Christ is there\u2026 if only we could recognize him in our midst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat did you get for Christmas this year?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I hear this question a lot right now.&nbsp; The question I like to ask in return is, \u201cWho is it that gave you this wonderful gift?\u201d&nbsp; More often than not, the answer is \u201cMy Grandma,\u201d or Mom, or Papa, or sister, or Uncle, or best friend, or\u2026 All of these people, our family (including the non-blood kind!), are part of God our Father\u2019s endless Christmas gifts to us, and we are part of His gift to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And yes, in each gift, Christ is there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today\u2019s Gospel (Luke 2:22-40 ) explains how Mary &amp; Joseph brought Jesus to the temple in order to \u201cfulfill all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord.\u201d&nbsp; And if I were a betting man, I\u2019d wager that the Holy Family passed through the multitudes of people in that temple without any of them recognizing them as Mary and Joseph, or Jesus as the Christ &#8211; Emmanuel, God With Us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Except for two people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First was Simeon, to whom God had promised would not see death until he first saw the Christ, exclaims \u201cLord, now your servant may go in peace, for my eyes have seen your salvation.\u201d&nbsp; And then there was Anna, a widow, who gave thanks to God for the child, the redeemer of Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through all we experience, are we like the multitudes in the temple, going about our daily lives and ignoring the gift of God in every moment?&nbsp; Or are we like Simeon and Anna, open to the Holy Spirit screaming in our ear, \u201cHEY \u2013 HERE I AM!\u201d?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what\u2019s the true gift this Christmas?&nbsp; Who really is the \u201cHoly Family\u201d in today\u2019s day and age?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur Father, who art in Heaven\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every one of us, we all are God\u2019s children.
