BELLS
As you know the birth of Jesus, the shepherds when they received the message of the angels, immediately ran to the cave. A popular story says it was with them a blind child. The pastors were taken from the great joy at the announcement that they had received began to run and paid no attention to him. Being blind, he could not find his cave, and so stood, alone and abandoned. He also wanted him to go to pay homage to the baby, but could not get there alone. He tried to attract the attention of the crowd that went to the cave, but no one seemed to have time for him. At one p
anointed, when the uproar was over, he could hear the distant sound of the bell of a cow. Since he had no better solution, the child thought that perhaps that cow is located at the stable where baby Jesus was born. A little 'wavering stood up and groped walked toward the sound. His assumptions were correct, he managed to get your child to Jesus and he's paid homage. His joy was great, and despite not seeing us, he went home happy. A simple bell had shown the way. the boys and not only them, but to all people of good will, we asked this small commitment:
I undertake to avoid calling attention to my nonsense, but I try hear the call of the important things, just as Jesus is.
