This is the movement of the Holy Family.

Welcome to our Rosedary Meditation.

Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

It's called a mind all those we've promised to pray for.

Now, the theme of this meditation is avoiding a catastrophic

Christmas part one. So many topics of conversation have become emotionally explosive.

We need some guiding principles to avoid a relationship catastrophe this Christmas.

So the first principle, if a person is open to truth and goodness,

then give it to them.

If a person is not open, we cannot force them.

Trying to force the truth on someone is counterproductive.

A direct attack only strengthens a person in their illusion and at the same time

embitters then. If anything prompts defensiveness all is lost. Instead, find out what people think and why.

Rather than making statements, ask for their insight, this builds a bridge of trust rather than a wall of resentment.

It may even dispose them to the truth and goodness at some point.

Remember, it's a long game. Be patient.

Our Father who art in heaven, hallow would be your name.

Thy kingdom come, I will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

The best of us today are daily bread and forgive us our trespasses.

As we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation or deliver us from evil.

Hail Mary, full of grace the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women, blessed

it is a fruit of thy womb Jesus.
