Today at church we prayed that we might “serve Christ in” “those whose lives are closely linked with ours”, and boy did I need that reminder and perspective shift toward my children, my nearest and smallest neighbors.
Read this after rocking my own wiggling babe to sleep and it gave me instant feels (and some tears). Of course Mary KNEW, but she still got to live the process of learning and knowing her own baby boy who was not just a baby, but God come to dwell with us. Magic.

Tender-hearted truth.
