“As we prepare ourselves to celebrate Christ's birth, we might do well to ask how he is our Lord, that is, the purpose of our life. To call him Lord is to claim him as our ruler and to take our direction from him. But following Jesus is about more than obedience. If he is our purpose, he is our center of gravity, the radiant love whose beauty draws us to itself as the fulfillment of our longing and the perfection of our nature.”

“The issue is not possession of riches, according to Saint Augustine, but the desire for them.”

“With John, we are called to prepare the way for Jesus and to point others to him. But we cannot do this unless we also leap for joy at the very thought of him. We don't need to be advanced in our discipleship or all that steady in our faith to experience this joy, since the happiness Jesus brings is the fulfillment for which we are hard-wired. Imagine infinite kindliness, and yield to it. The very thought of it inaugurates our journey into light.”
