In the wide and vast universe, a radiant star illuminated the earth. In a small cave in Bethlehem of Judah, God-made-human illuminated the world. A splendid light shone and continues to give clarity to the whole of humanity.
His glory does not dazzle with blinding brightness, but endures as a gentle whisper down the centuries. His glory is to pour out grace upon grace in an outpouring of generosity: tenderness and love, peace and light, simplicity and humility.
His truth is the very presence of God among us, his love is the justice of the Kingdom that changes history.
