We have to be very small, like the Babe
in the Crib. (...)
If His love has drawn Him down from
heaven so low, that He may make Himself like us, how much He must
long to lift us up, and make us like Him. It is a cruel road He has
chosen, taking our miseries and our sufferings, in order to be able
to give us His joy and His glory. He makes our road very easy in
comparison, though we complain, and think He is very cruel to us. I
always feel the Crib so sad, as well as so sweet. It is not like
Easter, which is nothing but rejoicing. (John Chapman OSB)
