Post-Christmas Reflection …

My wonderful Franciscan friend Richard Rohr shares an important reflection on Christmas here at Tikkun.org, made all the more meaningful in light of the “failure” of the “Christmas economy” this year.
Maybe, through this economic adjustment, we’ll actually have a chance to imagine what a true Christmas economy might mean … recalling Paul’s words in 2 Cor. 8:9:

You know the grace that has come through our Lord Jesus, the Liberating King. He set aside His infinite riches and was born into the lowest circumstance so that you may gain great riches through His humble poverty.
