I hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful Christmas holiday. I love that we get a full week to bask in the mystery that is Christmas! Yesterday was the feast of the martyr St. Stephen, today St. John the Evangelist, tomorrow the Holy Innocents. Oh, how beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of Him Who brings glad tidings, announcing peace, bearing good news, announcing salvation ~ Is 52:7. We are so blessed to be able to make a visit to the hidden Christ in the Tabernacle. Of course, He's in our hearts too, but our home is a busy place right now as we prepare for Dagny and Ian's nuptials, so I appreciate having the opportunity to make a Holy Hour in church, so beautifully decorated.
Enjoy Cantique of Jean Racine by Gabriel Faure sung by Voces8.
Word equal to God, the Almighty, our only hope,
Eternal day of the earth and heavens;
We break the silence of the peaceful night,
Divine Saviour, look upon us!
Fan the fire of your powerful grace upon us,
So that all Hell may flee at the sound of your voice;
Shake off the sleep of a languishing soul,
Who has forgotten your laws!
