Feast Of St Nicholas~More Than Santa Claus

I knew today's date rang a bell (no Christmas pun intended) for some reason. It is the feast day of St Nicholas. Unfortunately he gets "bumped" so to speak, on the Latin Rite calendar, because it is Sunday. This is not the case with our Eastern Rite brethren.
Thanks to Abbot Joseph at Word Incarnate, I was pleasantly and beautifully reminded of this great saint's feast day and his role as intercessor and overseer of our souls.
So instead of my usual saint feast day type of post, I am going to direct you to Abbot Joseph's post for today; just click the Word Incarnate link above to read his post.
