In today's Gospel we hear why Luke is writing and are called to bear witness that Jesus, filled with the Spirit, is the Christ, our Lord and Savior.
What is our response to that? In my parish today the children in the youngest catechism classes decided that we are to love and adore Jesus within the Blessed Eucharist. Together they met before the altar and tabernacle, bent down upon their knees, with the sign of the cross they said the Our Father, and ten times, "Jesus I Trust in You." They know it is important to reciprocate God's love by visiting with him and praying while in his company.
Besides this, they realized that they needed to continue sharing God's kingdom with others. To "let their little light shine" as the song goes, they need to help others, to listen to others, to be there for others. In each other we find God. They know to respect that. Blessed are the little ones, they shall see God.
