Almighty God, as I come ever closer to the celebration of Your birth, I beg you to grant me the insight to truly understand why You became a human. I know that my Church tells me that Your birth revealed that human life is a sharing in Divine Life. I desire to truly believe this, help my\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 hesitant belief.

Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
