Subject: [TAC] Daily Excerpt for December 24 2006
Date: December 23, 2006 09:16 pm

Today's excerpt is from St. Augustine:

"Awake, mankind! For your sake God has become man. Awake, you who sleep,
rise up from the dead, and Christ will enlighten you. I tell you again:
for your sake, God became man. You would have suffered eternal death, had
He not been born in time. Never would you have been freed from sinful
flesh, had He not taken on Himself the likeness of sinful flesh. You would
have suffered everlasting unhappiness, had it not been for this mercy. You
would never have returned to life, had he not shared your death. You would
have been lost if He had not hastened ‘to your aid. You would have
perished, had He not come. Let us then joyfully celebrate the coming of
our salvation and redemption. Let us celebrate the festive day on which He
who is the great and eternal day came from the great and endless day of
eternity into our own short day of time." ("From a Sermon" [Office of
Readings])

God Bless.

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us!

St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us!
