S12E7: The Personality of the Nativity

Today's Daily Decade, for the Feast of Ss. Perpetua & Felicity, offers prayers for the baptism of Sheila O'Brien's three grandchildren. We beg the intercession of Ss. Monica and Augustine to enlighten the understanding and enkindle the affection of the parents of these children to the necessity of Baptism not only for their children's sake, but indeed for their own. Today's reflection deals with the personal nature of our God, how that personality manifests itself in the Incarnation, and why the Nativity fundamentally changes how we approach sin and repentance, especially as we come into this second week of Lent.
