Peace to you brothers,
We address the message to those that tired of suffering, they seek peace and comfort for the soul.
When, in our homes, we received the message sent by the Emissaries of the Light, guided by the Star, we could not imagine how great would be the spirit we would find at the simple lodging.
We took gold, myrrh and incense for celebrating the Angel's birth that made man. However, for our surprise, guided by the "Star", when we met the simple scenery, we recognized that were ourselves receiving the gifts, indeed.
The lessons contained in the "humble shelter" began in a manger, where was born the Sublime Angel without opulence, abundance and comfort that His Greatness allowed.
"Teachings" that would transmit us began with His birth, because still Baby already He confirmed the message that would come later: "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the Kingdom of Heaven." That Christ Child enchanted us with His wise look that invited us to the spiritual serenity.
On Christmas day, gifts have full symbolic representation, when we reward the affections achieved in life. However, the suggestion of good Illuminated Friends is that, amid the celebrations, we always remember the lesson of simplicity transmitted by a Baby, so that all of us could experience it.
Let us welcome the Christ Child, but let us follow the Lessons and steps of the Master Nazarene who came on earth, so that, through His words, the verb to love remained in human hearts.
