Christmas Eve meditation 2

Courtesy of Irish theologian Bono... “That there’s a force of love and logic behind the universe is overwhelming to start with, if you believe it. But the idea that that same love and logic would choose to describe itself as a baby born in shit and straw and poverty is genius and brings me to my knees, literally.”

Christmas Eve mediatation 1

Courtesy of German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer... "We are talking about the birth of a child, not the revolutionary act of a strong man, not the breathtaking discovery of a sage, not the pious act of a saint. It really passes all understanding: the birth of a child is to bring the great turning around of all things, is to bring salvation and redemption to the whole human race. What kings and statesmen, philosophers and artists, founders of religions and moral teachers vainly strive for, now comes about through a new born child."
