January 28, 2024. The Holy Innocents.
Instead of welcoming Jesus, the newborn king, Herod decided to get rid of him. He was insecured, jealous, and attached to power. Let's not allow attraction to power and worldly ambitions, turn us into monsters and murderers. This message is for all those who are in position of power and leadership. Abuse of power causes harm, loss of trust and peace! Let's kill the Herod in us and allow the new baby Jesus to be born. Let's be protectors of the innocents after the example of Joseph.
Pray and show love to the innocent children, especially the unborn.
Merry Christmas!
