Sign of love

December 25, 2008 | Uncategorized

And now a few words from the home office as we wrap up our Christmas celebrations:

“God’s sign is simplicity…he makes himself small for us. This is how he reigns. He does not come with power and outward splendor. He comes as a baby — defenseless and in need of our help. He does not want to overwhelm us with his strength. He takes away our fear of his greatness. He asks for our love; so he makes himself a child. He wants nothing other from us than our love…God made himself small so that we could understand him, welcome him and love him.” — Pope Benedict XVI
