Christ came into the world, offering His entire life to His Father, from infancy to death. In the Mass, that same Christ-child, at Christmas, offered Himself and His life to the Father, for the Father's glory. Christ gave glory to God at every moment of His earthly existence, and still offers praise to Him from our midst today.
Christ really comes to our altar to join us; He comes here, eager to join us, 'on fire' with love, in invisible glory.

Whenever we pray to the Father, in the name of Christ (united to Christ's intentions) it is as though Heaven is laid open to receive us and our prayer.
Every good prayer, every act of faith in God and His goodness, is like a cry from a 'soldier': 'Our hero - Christ - is worth dying for!'
Every act of faith in God (as when we pray the creed, sincerely) is like a cry of hope and determination from a darkened world.
In the heart of one who truly loves God, little weaknesses are like a 'muddy area' through which new shoots of grace emerge.
What a great waterfall of grace is poured upon us by the Father, when we pray in Christ's name. And "nakedness" before God brings greater cleanliness and refreshment.

As an exhausted workman one day might gaze, astonished, at the shining road built by his labour, so we will marvel one day when God's 'fruit' will burst from our lives.
