SEASON STEEISES

The irreversible movement or time has once again left. Christmas behind us. and we are at the threshold of 1055. No one of us knows what this New Year will mean to him personally. nor is the world at large in possession of any certain foreknowledge of the course of events which awaits it during the next twelve months.

Perhaps at this moment of

-anticipation it might not be out of

place to consider. in the relative peace of its aftermath. the mes- sage and hope which the celebra- tion of Christmas should have un- derlined for us-n message at once old and familiar, and yet each year possessing a. quality of newness and freshness which fills the thought- ful mind with a renewed sense of awe and wonder. The primary source of this re- action of the Christian world is the realization once again olclodis love for men. Accommodating Him- seil-most graciously to our human condition. the living God manifests Himself and His love for us in a child--at once human and Divine. Herc, after all, is the central point of Christianity-the entering into human flesh of the very Son of God-God of God, light of light, true God of true God. The sign of love is the desire and willingness to give oneself to and to share the life of the belov- ed. Christmas is nothing if it be not the celebration of God's love for you and me-concretely proven in the birth of Christ. Here we have the Creator of man sharing man's nature, that 1-le might teach him how to live, and finally that He might enter into suffering in order to restore man to his right- ful heritage as belonging to the family of God. ETERNAL NEWNESS

Perhaps the eternal newness of the Christmas story is a fact be- cause each time we think of God's love in these terms. it comes as something startling. The impact of the truth never loses its force. be- cause it is never completely com- prehensible to us. The Incarnation of the Son of God is not some- thing that we can ever get com- pletely used to. It is. after all. the result of a Divine ingenuity, and hence never loses its power to de- light the finite mind of man. "Love will find It way." they say; and the way of God's love is the Christ of Bethlehem Who proclaimed Him- self as "the Way".

In mankind. in its sin and suf- fering, is comforted by the know-

Thoughts For Our 'Iime

By His Eminence Cardinal Mctiulgun 1 ' (CoP.Yrightl

GOD'S LOVE 10!. MAN

ledge that the Son of God has be- come the Son of Man. it "is no less strengthened and vivified by the knowledge that it has been called to membership in the family of God through sharing by grace in the Divine Bonahip and Life of the Christ who was born in Bethle- hem. For this is. after all. the other side of the coin of Christ- mas. If the Divine Son has become man. it is in order that He might give to man a share in His own Divine life and so be led to union with the Father.

"0 wonderful exchange." sings the Church. "the Creator of the human race, taking unto 1-limself a living body. delgns to be born of a. Virgin: and becoming man irom no huma.n generation, hath be- stowed upon us His divinity." God has shared our life in order that we might share His.

BASIS OF ROPE

Here again is the delight and confident hope characteristic Christmas, for if it is the feast of G0d'5 love. It also teaches us the dignity to which that love would exalt. us. Here is the basis of christian hope. not in a denial of the fact of sin and human weak- ness and even malice, but in s T000801!-ion of the reality of God's love and of what man can become thmush the power of that love which has incarnated itself in Christ.

These then are the truths-at once old and new-which are re- vealed before our eyes in the cel- ebration of Christmas: the love of God for you and me. the sharing of our human life by the Divine Son, and the vocation of man to a participation in the Divine Life and Sonshlp of Christ.

I have noted the uncertainty of each of us as we enter into a new year. Yet these truths which I have enumerated will still be as true in 1955 as they are in 1054. Equipped with the knowledge and love of them. we should be able to enter into that year, if not with foreknowledge. at least with a cer- tain humble joy and confidence born of Christ's love for us and our own realization of the great things which His love has done for us.

Whatever God in His Provi- dence may allow to happen to us this -year, it cannot destroy the reality and joy of the Christmas message. if we remain faithful to it in its entirety. Who. after all. shall separate us from the love of God?
