May Your Heart Be His Cradle - Padre Pio and John Henry Newman

In all our excitement, wanderings, complexities, in our work, or even disparity preparing for Christmas, let us discern our approach  of our tasks by way of John Henry Newman's quote on vocation, resolution and offering; and in doing so allow God to meet us where we are at making way for the infant king in all its wonder and love.“For the feast of the Infant Jesus, my wish for you is that your heart may be his cradle adorned with flowers, where he can rest without the slightest discomfort.”  -St. Padre Pio
