Acts 6:8-10; 7:54-60
“Behold, I see the heavens opened!”

The day after Christmas, it is interesting to hear these words of Stephen. The presence of God in the world is Jesus present with Stephen, with us, and at the same time, God who is always in heaven.

Matthew 10:17-22
“It will not be you who speak but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.”

The presence of God in our hearts, when welcomed, guides us to reflect deeply within ourselves and to speak well before others.
