December 21 - Simbang Gabi Reflections 2024 by Rev. Fr. Weyms Sanchez, SJ

“Advent invites us to ask ourselves: Is Christ the One we’ve been waiting for? Do we truly recognize Him as the fulfillment of our deepest longings, the answer to our prayers? Elizabeth's joy came from her recognition of Christ's presence—do we share that same joy when we encounter Him in our lives?”

“A man of hope is a man of faith because hope rests on God’s proven faithfulness. Zechariah's story teaches us that even when God's promises seem impossible, we are called to trust that they will be fulfilled in due time, just as Gabriel assured him: ‘...it will be fulfilled at the proper time’ (Luke 1:20).”

During this second week of Advent, let us continue to pray for peace, in tormented Ukraine, in the Middle East – Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, now in Syria – in Myanmar, Sudan and in more than fifty countries where people suffer from war and violence. Let us pray so that we may reach the feast of the Nativity with a ceasefire on all fronts of war. A utopia? Naïve dream?
