Rejoicing in the Holy Spirit, Jesus praises the Father for revealing the mysteries of his Kingdom to the \"childlike\"—humble and simple folks like his disciples, including the Twelve.

Traffic in Metro Manila is now on crawling speed as the Christmas season nears. On the road, this is not the season to be merry. Instead, it has become synonymous with another tradition: unbearable traffic.
