"This Nativity night bestowed peace on the whole world; So let no one 
threaten; This is the night of the Most Gentle One – Let no one be cruel; 
This is the night of the Humble One – Let no one be proud. Now is the day 
of joy – Let us not revenge; Now is the day of Good Will – Let us not be 
mean. In this Day of Peace – Let us not be conquered by anger. Today the 
Bountiful impoverished Himself for our sake; So, rich one, invite the poor 
to your table. Today we receive a Gift for which we did not ask; So let us 
give alms to those who implore and beg us. This present Day cast open the 
heavenly doors to our prayers; Let us open our door to those who ask our 
forgiveness. Today the DIVINE BEING took upon Himself the seal of our 
humanity, In order for humanity to be decorated by the Seal of DIVINITY."

St. Isaac Syrian, Nativity Homily. "From the rising of the sun unto the

going down of the same the Lord's name is to be praised. The Lord is high 
above all nations, and his glory above the heavens."  Psalm 113:3-4

Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
