If you want to see people on the edge of insanity, just watch the way families treat their babies at Christmas time! The poor child has no warning!

Red furry stocking cap.

Goofy elfish shoes that curl at the toes.

And the pictures we take!

Baby snoozing under the tree.

Baby on Santa's lap.

Santa with wet spot on lap.

Isn't Christmas the story of a baby? The moment that shaped all others?

Mary's eyes falling on the face of her just-born son.

The first to whisper, "So this is what God looks like!"

Never in humankind's wildest imaginings did we consider that God would enter the world as an infant. Yet the disciple whom Jesus' loved said:

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
...
No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.
(John 1:14,18).

Would you like to see God?

Would you like to see God?
Take a look at the baby Jesus!
