Fr. Michael Osatofoh Eninlejie, MSP - Homily for the 7th day in the Octave of Christmas Year B - December 31, 2020

THURSDAY 31ST DECEMBER 2020

7TH DAY IN THE OCTAVE OF CHRISTMAS

1 John 2:18-21

John 1:1-18

TO GOD BE THE GLORY

Today is the last day of the year 2020. We cannot imagine it that this year has already come and gone. For many people, It just seemed like yesterday that we started the year with so much zeal and enthusiasm. For so many people, thank God that the very interesting year 2020 is over.

As St John tells us in the first reading, many of us were able to overcome the year because we did not listen to wrong teachings and advice. It is only those who hold on to Jesus who will conquer till the end.

In the gospel reading, we are told that God has been with us from the very beginning. Jesus has been with the father right from the time of creation. He knows the end from the very beginning.

As we spend the last day of the year 2020 and get set for 2021, let us thank God for all that he has done for us, and pray that the year 2021 will be better than this one. God help us. Amen. See you in 2021.
