"But he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even before he is born."
(Luke 1:15)
Today, we honour the Solemnity of the Nativity of John the Baptist, a feast that celebrates the birth of the great prophet who prepared the way for our Lord Jesus Christ.
John the Baptist, filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother’s womb, lived a life of profound humility, courage, and unwavering commitment to God's call. As we reflect on his remarkable life, let us strive to embody his virtues of bold witness, repentance, and readiness to serve. Through his example, may we find the strength to proclaim the truth and prepare our hearts for the coming of the Lord.
