Free to worship him without fear

“This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to set us free from the hand of our enemies, free to worship him without fear, holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.” (LK 1: 73-75)

We are God’s children; we are spiritual siblings of Our Lord, and as children, we are “free to worship him without fear, holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.” His birthday “set us free from the hand of our enemies,” from Satan and his angels. We are free to love, to adore and to praise Him in every moment of our lives.

“O Radiant Dawn, Splendor of eternal light, sun of justice: come and shine on those who dwell in darkness and in the shadow of death.” (Gospel Acclamation)
