Time of Enchantment

by Angelo Patri

 

On Christmas Eve, the story says, an enchantment falls upon the earth. It is a time when the Spirit of a newborn child whose name is Love, possesses the world . The way to Christmas lies through an ancient gate, patterned after a sheepfold and guarded by angels with star dust in their hair. It is a litle gate, child-high, child-wide, and there is a password: Peace on earth to men of good will. May you, this Christmas, become as a little child again and enter into his kingdom.
