We read in The Gospel of Luke that after both John and Jesus were born, they grew and became strong in serving God. It was said about John: “The child grew and became strong in spirit, and he was in the wilderness until the day he appeared publicly to Israel.” (Luke 1:80)
About Jesus the scripture says: “The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon him.” (Luke 2:40)
Today on Christmas Eve, I give thanks to God for these two miraculous children of long ago–cousins according to the gospel writer–and I pray that all our children today will grow and become strong in the spirit and in wisdom, and that they will find favor with God and serve God all their days.
A very, very joyous Christmas and Nativity day to everybody!! Feliz Navidad!! ❤️💜
