À propos de ce contenu audio
Reflecting on St. Luke 2:15—“Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us”—this meditation draws our attention to the first hearts that ran toward Christ. They were not scholars, rulers, or the powerful of their age, but shepherds—ordinary laborers keeping watch through the night.
Rev. Fr. Dr. Timothy (Tenny) Thomas reminds us that heaven is drawn to humility. As St. Augustine teaches, the humble receive what the proud overlook. The angels did not appear in a palace or the courts of the Temple, but in an open field, to those whose hands were rough and whose names were unknown. Revelation moved quickly toward those who were ready to receive it.
The shepherds did not wait for perfect understanding. They obeyed before they could explain, and they entered the mystery before grasping it fully. Their faith had feet. In a world that urges us to wait for complete clarity, this meditation invites us to respond when God gently nudges the heart.
Act immediately on one good prompting today—a prayer, an act of kindness, a confession, a word of encouragement. Like the shepherds, run toward the light you have, trusting that more light will meet you on the way.
