Be blessed today with the
Words of St. Augustine
That tell the wonders of
Incarnation so well:
“Man’s Maker was made man,
… That the Bread might hunger,
The Fountain thirst,
The Light sleep,
The Way be tired on its journey;
That the Truth might be accused of false witness,
The Teacher be beaten with whips,
The Foundation be suspended on wood;
That Strength might grow weak;
That the Healer might be wounded;
That Life might die.” (Augustine of Hippo)
That’s the gift of Christmas to you.
