Dear Friends,
E. T. Sullivan once wrote:
“When God wants a great work done in the world or a great wrong righted, he goes about it in a very unusual way. He doesn’t stir up his earthquakes or send forth his thunderbolts. Instead, he has a helpless baby born, perhaps in a simple home and of some obscure mother. And then God puts the idea into the mother’s heart, and she puts it into the baby’s mind. And then God waits. The greatest forces in the world are not the earthquakes and the thunderbolts. The greatest forces in the world are babies.”
As we celebrate the birth of an obscure baby born in an obscure stable two millennia ago, let us never underestimate the power of every baby, every mother, every father, and every family.
Merry Christmas from my family to yours!
With love,
Kimberly
