You will find an infant…

“He was a little infant like any other with nothing unusual about him, just a little child like you yourself were, without much charm those first hours and first days. He became a tiny baby crying from the cold as he lay there on the straw in a state of total helplessness which he took on out of love.
That is how our God first appeared and God wants to be contemplated and adored in this state not only by the lowly but also by the great for God accepted the adoration of both shepherds and wise men and even led them by a star into the presence of this little baby without grandeur or majesty.” - Little Sister Magdeleine of Jesus, 1898-1989
