The Christ Child


Mosiah 2: 8 And he shall be called aJesus bChrist, the cSon of God, thedFather of heaven and earth, the eCreator of all things from the beginning; and his fmother shall be called Mary.

Yesterday during the sacrament at church, I turned my thoughts from usually thinking about Christs sacrifice for me, to imagining the baby Jesus.  I thought of him as an infant...small and vulnerable but still, my savior and king.  I was drawn to to the innocence of a child and how He maintained that innocence and lack of sin throughout his whole life. That initial thinking of the tiny babe led me to the reason we take the sacrament.  To weekly partake of forgiveness and make ourselves, or rather, take advantage of Christ's atonement to become without sin and forgiven again. How grateful I am for that baby born into the world...
