"But he, filled with the holy Spirit, looked up intently to heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God," Acts 7:55
What a contrast, yesterday the birth of our Lord, today the feast day of St Stephen. St Stephen had no problem speaking the truth no matter the circumstances. His hope was not here on earth but in the heavens. We are called to live in this world but to not be off this world. Look to Jesus for your guidance, spend time getting to know Him and His story. Jesus didn't come so we could celebrate His birthday, He came to free us from the enslavement of the wickedness and snares of the devil.
Dear Lord God, You see all that goes on, guide us today to look beyond the glitter and glamour to see You. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit to speak the truth as St Stephen did. Enliven our spirits Lord so we may see the glory of You in Heaven. I ask this through Your Holy Name, Jesus Christ, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Angels, pray for us.
