We all love Christmas when we celebrate our dear Saviour’s birth. It is a time of love, of rejoicing and family. Our Christian celebration began with the Holy family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Oh what joy it would bring Me were they to turn to Me on Christmas Day
My dearly beloved daughter, this is a message for the world, for Christmas Day. As all of you celebrate My Birthday, allow Me to enter your heart on this special day – for this day is Mine. Invite Me into your home as a favoured guest and introduce Me to those amongst your family, friends and neighbours, who may have forgotten about Me. Christmas may be a celebration about Me, but I am ignored amidst the great rejoicings, which take place. Allow mention of Me to gladden your hearts, to bring you joy and to bring you hope for the future – a future I secured for you from the day I was born.
Remind those who no longer revere Me, of the love that I have for them and how I long to be part of their lives again. Oh what joy it would bring Me were they to turn to Me on Christmas Day and ask Me to bring them My Peace and My Love. If they would come to Me on Christmas Day I would envelop them into the safety of My Divine refuge and never let them separate from Me again.
My beloved followers, you are My Family, and I am your family. Through My Mercy, I take you into the Bosom of My Beloved Father, who loves you with the passion of a tender-hearted parent. Oh how He loves you and how much pleasure He feels when you acknowledge Me, and call on Me, for My Help.
You mean everything to Me and My Love for you is all encompassing, way beyond your comprehension. It is therefore with a fiery compassion and fierce determination that I will fight for every one of you, to save you from the wickedness of My enemies. I guard your souls with great jealousy and will fight the good fight to bring you safe and sound into My Kingdom. No matter how I am opposed; how much Christians have to suffer humiliation in My Name; however much seduction is placed before you by My adversary – I will win this battle for souls. That is a fact for nothing can stand between God and His children for He will not permit it. The man who does, will be toppled. Hatred will be destroyed and lies will be revealed for the shallowness upon which they were created. The Truth will stand the test of time.
I am coming soon to unite God’s children – His precious family. Lift your hearts, do not allow My foes to dampen your spirit and let hope be your only thought. Have complete confidence in My Great Mercy and be ready to welcome Me, your Saviour and Redeemer, back into your lives. Rejoice, for My Promises will bring with them a cause for the greatest joy. This Christmas will be joyful, for My Time is short.
Your beloved Jesus

On Christmas Day, we Catholics have 3 different Masses, according to the time of each.The first Mass is the Midnight Mass, then the Dawn Mass (also known as the Shepherd’s Mass) and the day Mass. The readings for the Dawn Mass struck me on Christmas morning. (see below):
Introit Isaiah 9: 2,6
A light shall shine upon us this day: for the Lord is born to us: and He shall be called Wonderful, God, the Prince of Peace, the Father of the world to come: of whose reign there shall be no end.
(Ps. 92: 1) The Lord hath reigned, He is clothed with beauty: the Lord is clothed with strength, and hath girded Himself.
Epistle Titus 3; 4-7
Dearly beloved, the goodness and kindness of God our Savior appeared: not by the works of justice which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us by the laver of regeneration and renovation of the Holy Ghost, whom He hath poured forth upon us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior: that, being justified by His grace, we may be heirs according to hope of life everlasting: in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Gradual: Psalms 117: 26-27.3
Blessed be He that cometh in the name of the Lord: the Lord is God, and He hath shone upon us. This is the Lord’s doing: and it is wonderful in our eyes.
LESSER ALLELUIA Psalms 92: 1
Alleluia, alleluia. The Lord hath reigned, He is clothed with beauty: the Lord is clothed with strength, and hath girded Himself with power. Alleluia.
Gospel Luke 2: 15-20
At that time the shepherds said one to another: Let us go over to Bethlehem, o pass, which the Lord hath showed to us. And they came with haste: and they found Mary and Joseph, and the Infant lying in the manger. And seeing they understood of the word that had been spoken to them concerning this Child. And all that heard wondered:and at those things that were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart. And glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them
Offertory Psalm 92:1-2
God hath established the world, which shall not be moved: Thy throne, O God, is prepared from of old; Thou art from everlasting.
Preface of the Nativity
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God: for through the Mystery of the Word made flesh, the new light of Thy glory hath shone upon the eyes of our mind, so that while we acknowledge God in visible form, we may through Him be drawn to the love of things invisible. And therefore with Angels and Archangels,with Thrones and Dominations, and with all the hosts of the heavenly army, we sing the hymn of Thy glory, evermore saying: (Holy, holy, holy Lord God of Hosts…)
Communion verse : Zachariah 9:9
Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Sion, shout for joy, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold thy King comes, holy, the Savior of the world.
