God-With-Us
“For what great nation is there that has gods so close to it as the Lord, our God, is to us?”
These words from Deuteronomy proclaim our privilege of having the God who created the universe with us.
In the Incarnation, the Second Person of the Trinity came to live among us. He now remains with us in his Eucharist, the Sacraments, and in his words.
In our hearts, God is present as evident in the voice of the Holy Spirit guiding us to do good and avoid evil (ref. the Gospel).
Jesus also teaches us that he is present in our neighbors. Moreover, as St. Paul reminds us Jesus’ teaching that we serve Him when we “care for orphans and widows in their affliction.” (2nd Reading).
