To me, the greatest heritage of the Christ Mass, or Christmas, as we celebrate it, is that we are actually celebrating our own birth. Weāre celebrating our own resurrection.
Weāre celebrating triumphantly our own movement back into our true self or Christ Consciousness. In fact, many of us are just rushing into it, arms and hearts wide open, full of love, and knowing that not one thing is coming our way that we canāt handle.
The word Christmas is actually the words Christ Mass, which mean the worshiping of the Christ within each one of us and the partaking of that Spirit.
We reach inward to the Christ and worshipānot the person, but the God, the God of our hearts, the God of each one of us.
At the time of the Christ Mass, itās almost as if the angels are touching very near to the hearts of men and women, especially those who are open to the eternal message of love, understanding, faith, hope, and charity.
