5th day within the octave of Christmas
Saint Thomas Becket, Bishop, Martyr
“Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the dark”. This is the point of difference whether you hate or not! The moment you hate you are in darkness. The moment you start loving, you are in light. The hatred brings darkness to our life. The truth is that by incarnation the light is brought to the heart of each person. “… the night is over and the real light is already shining”, because the incarnation has brought light into the life of each person. This light in order to shine in our life, we must love each other. But by one reason or another we cannot love our brother, this light in us loses its essence being light. Let’s right: Am I darkening the light in me by hatred of any sort?
