Advent Day #9 – “Cry”
We cry in relief, sadness, pain, and many other reasons. Our tears relieve stress and release important chemicals in our body that help us feel better. A crying baby creates a different response than someone crying while grieving or with relief.
One baby crying in a manger would become the Messiah. By choosing to be born human, God allows us to choose to follow since God manifested as human to encourage understanding and facilitate choice.
May God the Father, who by Baptism adopts us as his children, grant us grace, fill us with love, and keep us in peace.
