Artist: James Tissot
"The nine months draw to a close, and our Lord's
last act is to journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem.
It is toward us, as well as toward Bethlehem,
that He is journeying. He is about to leave His home
a second time for the love of us. As He had left
His uncreated home in the Bosom of the Father,
so is He now going to leave His created home
that He may come to us and be still more ours."
Fr. Frederick W. Faber
