St. Hilary of Poitiers wrote, "What worthy return can
we make for so great a condescension? The One Only-begotten God, ineffably born
of God, entered the Virgin's womb and grew and took the frame of poor humanity.
He who upholds the universe, within whom and through whom are all things, was brought forth by common childbirth.
He at whose voice archangels and angels tremble, and heaven
and earth and all the elements of this world are melted, was heard in childish
wailing.
The Invisible and Incomprehensible, whom sight and feeling
and touch cannot measure, was wrapped in a cradle."
What can we do? Love the Lord our God!
May God Be
Praised!
