Puer natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis, cuius imperium super humerum eius, et vocabitur nomen eius magni consilii Angelus.
A Child is born for us, and a son is given to us; his scepter of power rests upon his shoulder, and his name will be called Messenger of great counsel.
Here’s a thought from St. Augustine: “Let us all together then, perfectly united in mind and heart, celebrate today the birthday of the Lord…. In the one who for our sake sprang up from the earth, let us in turn take possession of heaven.”
Mutual prayers!
