On this day new joy entered our world;
may we try by our lives to share joy with others each day.
On this day fresh hope entered our world;
may we bring hope to those who are heavily burdened.
On this day love was visible in a child;
may we show our love for others through friendship and service.
On this day the promise of peace on earth was proclaimed;
may we be lovers of peace and demonstrate this love
by reflective responses to life's challenges and trials.
On this day the Light of Love is incarnate:
the Christ in you,
and the Christ in all.
- adapted from the People's Companion to the Breviary, Vol. 1, p.274
