During this Christmastide let us remember that the Child Jesus is the center of our devotion and life not just the trappings of a supposed traditional Christmas. Let us remind ourselves how St. Anthony carries the Child Jesus everyday. He carries him to remind us that Christmas is not just one day but it is every day of the year.He carries him to remind us that Jesus is to be the center of our life. Let us spend this time in prayer and hope that Jesus will be the center of our life and imitate our dear Saint Anthony holding Jesus close to our hearts at all times. The Child Jesus is the center of Christmas and the Child Jesus should be always present to us everyday. St Anthony of Padua pray for us!
