Reflection 

Lord our God,

here in a humble stable we see 

Joseph and Mary

keeping watch over their newborn son.

We see poor shepherds and animals

whose manger serves as a bed for

this baby,

the Christ child;

Mary's son and God's Son,

helpless infant and mighty God.

We are reminded of the happy truth

of Christmas.

"The Word became flesh and made his 

dweeling with us" (John 1:14).

Through Christ our Lord.

Amen

Larissa
