Friday, December 6, 2024: (St. Nicholas)
Jesus said: “My people, you are waiting to receive Me as the infant King at Christmas. The people of Israel waited a long time until I came on the earth at Bethlehem. My people are only weeks away from your celebration of Christmas. This is a good time to put your life in order spiritually, as you come to seek My forgiveness of your sins. I am truly the Judge as in your vision, but I have mercy on your souls when I forgive your sins. Be thankful for the many blessings I bestow on you every day. I love all of you so much, and I heal those people who cry out to Me in faith, just as I healed the two blind men in the Gospel.”

Jesus said: “My people, you have read about St. Nicholas who shared gifts with people, and he started a practice of hanging socks to be filled with gifts. This gift giving has made a big business for the shopkeepers around Christmas time. It is a beautiful sharing in the spirit of My birth when the Wisemen brought Me gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. You can also offer your prayers as gifts for your friends and relatives. Pray also to stop the wars that are going on in Israel and the Ukraine. Praying for peace on earth is a good cause around Christmas.”
