Wisdom from Fr. Wilfrid Stinissen

 
 
 

‘Let us bear the Cross and Resurrection, let us bear Bethlehem within us …’, says Saint Jerome (ca. 335–ca. 420). To read about Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem is not only a reminder of a historical event. The decisive thing is that Jesus is born in me today.

—Fr. Wilfrid Stinissen, O.C.D.

from his book The Word Is Very Near You
