One of the reasons the Christmas story continues to resonate with us through the ages is the promise of the child. We can see in the face of every child the potential to grow into an amazing, unique human being. The ideal that the wisdom of Heaven lay sleeping with the child in the manger is a truth that every parent has felt when they first held a newborn baby in their arms.
When the Christ child appeared in the world, he entered into a great drama of politics and power. But the Godseed was too strong to be swept away in the events of the times. As we tell our own children and grandchildren this timeless story, let’s remind them that a mighty seed is planted in them as well. THE SEED IS ALWAYS THERE, and the Spirit that created us is longing to express itself through us.
