Contemplation: “The Virgin gave birth, yet remained a virgin; she bore the Light of the world, yet was not consumed. From her shone forth the Sun of righteousness, who illumined those who sat in darkness and in the shadow of death.” (St Ephrem the Syrian)

Personal Reflection: How does Jesus bring light into my life today, and how can St Mary’s faith help me bring Christ’s light to others through my words and actions?

Bible Knowledge Question: According to Isaiah 9:6, what titles are given to the Child who is born to us?

Prayer: Lord God, You promised that a great Light would shine in the darkness, and You fulfilled this promise through the Virgin St Mary. Help us to walk as children of the Light and to reflect Your love in all that we do. Through the prayers of St Mary, O Lord, grant us peace and salvation. Amen.
