In a world where our hearts often aspire for the quick and decisive coming of Jesus Christ, such that He might intervene with regards to our various problems and concerns, Fr.

Topics discussed with regards to this story include how the child Jesus is being presented in the Temple by the Holy Family as the Lamb of God who has come to bring about the salvation of the world; the necessity of walking the path of suffering love to become an effective Christian witness, as opposed to being a cause of scandal; and the need to preserve with prayer, fasting and joyful expectation until the pending return of the long-awaited Messiah.
