For us to firmly assent to that which is unseen is called faith. We have faith in what people tell us even though we don't see it for ourselves because we consider them trustworthy and believable. For example, believing how software works based on what a person is told without checking the source code is a kind of faith. This kind of faith that is called natural faith. We use natural faith on a regular basis, believing and even acting on what others tell us because we considered them credible witnesses or trustworthy people.
Typically, in the Church when we say faith, we don’t mean this kind of natural faith, we mean supernatural faith. Supernatural faith is different because it is about God and His promises, which are above and beyond but not opposed to reason. God is the one who bears witness to Himself, and with Supernatural Faith, we believe Him. We have our reasons to believe Him and He has His credible witnesses.

This homily is similar to my homily on Christmas Eve, but there are some differences including a joke.
Jesus Christ is the light of the world. I can recall how He brought light to my darkness and guided me to a better more joyful life with Him. He came to bring light to the darkness of all, coming to us as a little baby. Listen to my homily to hear my reversion story and how it connects to Christmas!

When we desire something and are waiting for it, we are increasing our capacity to enjoy it when it comes. Such anticipation helps us to be prepared for it when it is here. If we don’t prepare, if we aren’t ready, if we don’t anticipate, wait, and watch, then we might just miss out on something great and wonderful.
