Yesterday somebody asked me "how many people will you have for dinner tonight?". I responded "1. Me". That person corrected me: "Well, there will be 2 at your table". She was right. I didn't feel alone. He was with me. Keep Him by your side and you'll never feel lonely again. I wish you all a very blessed Christmas.

Thank you, sister. I am here in my living room, alone and I feel a deep sadness. I live abroad, no family around. I am a widower with two lovely teen sons who live with me and a daughter who lives abroad also. I am tired, physically, spiritually and mentally. Please pray for my children that I can be the best mum possible. I will meditate in you words today and thank you for the tips.

Thank you sister and may The Almighty God bless you for praying for us sinners.

Thank you Sister Maria from Alabama. Even though I am alone this Christmas, I am not alone. Because Emmanuel, God is with us, God is with me. Thanks for this wonderful message. You are very kind. Merry Christmas!

Thank you, sister. I really needed to hear this today. I hope that I can learn to see myself the way God sees me.

[@glyniscooper5820]

Thank you Sister Maria for your encouraging words and prayers. I have two friends who are struggling this Christmas, my friend Bridget who lives alone but cannot join in the festivities this Christmas as she is isolated with a bad sore throat and cold. My friend Heather is struggling and coming to terms with bereavement so is quite low at the moment. I pray that God will comfort them and heal them. They are both devout Catholics and do such a lot for our Parish. Please pray for us, Glynis

Thank you sister, it’s been a tough few years, aging and trying to stay healthy, I had a bad case of COVID and I have not been the same since, I am praying for God’s grace to be able to bring some good from this, and the acceptance of my physical poverty.

Thank you, dear sister. I am a widow of many years and now giving up the family home for a smaller home in a retirement village. Although I have my family close by, I am struggling at this time. I know God is with but… your talk and prayer have helped me so much.

[@suespiers9943]

Sr.Maria, Thank you for your posts for which I am very grateful You are a wonderful teacher and I have learnt a lot from your sharing. I.will pray for you and all at the monastery. Your posts are a comfort to me as I live with chronic health issues and due to a severe relapse I have mostly been in bed.for the last 10.years. My faith, daily gratitude practice and trying to live in the " presence" of the moment are support for me each day. So your posts are very welcome and joyfully received. I am in the uk and miss going to mass..I shall watch a recorded Christmas mass on television in.a little while. God bless you, prayers, love and peace 🙏💖✨️

[@catholiclife9304]

This has been especially hard. My husband is a manic depressive. I'm the one who works to support us. I actually missed Christmas mass because I'm so exhausted and overwhelmed doing everything alone. No medicine helps. He's months just sleeping. I pray to God to give me kindness and peace of mind and. Thank you sister. I needed this so much. God bless you. I'm ashamed I couldn't go to mass. I always go every Sunday. During the week and I missed celebrating the birth of Jesus.

[@Ritchie123]

Thank sister, and a blessed Christmas to you too! I'm praying to learn how to pray, and to find a way to shine God's light in the darkness, of myself and everyone I meet. Would you ask our Father to guide my efforts? I'm missing my parish back in Vermont; now home in Virginia, and want them to know how much I love them and treasure them. I would ask for God's loving Hand to guide them, bless them and protect them. Would you pray for the Parishoners of St. Michael's Roman Catholic Church of Vermont? I believe that that Spirit of The Lord led me there, and because of that- I've begun to seek Jesus with all my heart, soul, and mind.
