<strong>Rosary</strong> <strong>Meditations</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Parents</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Children</strong><br />
9. “…because he has looked on the humiliation <strong>of</strong> his servant. Yes, from<br />
now onwards all generations will call me blessed.” (Lk 1:48)<br />
10. “…<strong>for</strong> the Almighty has done great things <strong>for</strong> me. Holy is his name.” (Lk.<br />
1:49)<br />
The Birth <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />
1. The Father bridges the gap between divinity <strong>and</strong> humanity in the person<br />
<strong>of</strong> Jesus <strong>Christ</strong>.<br />
2. Jesus came into this world. Jesus <strong>Christ</strong>, the only begotten Son <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Father, equal in every way to the Father, came into this world as a little<br />
baby, a helpless little baby. If we realized the true majesty <strong>of</strong> God, if we<br />
saw Him in all His majesty, we could not even st<strong>and</strong> to look at Him.<br />
But Jesus, clothed in flesh, comes as a helpless little baby, born in a little<br />
crib in a stable in Bethlehem!<br />
3. Do we realize the immense love that the Father has <strong>for</strong> us that He sent<br />
His only begotten Son into this world as a human in the person <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />

4. Jesus, a Divine Person, unites His human nature <strong>and</strong> His divine nature<br />
in His Person.<br />
5. Who are we that God loves us so much that He would take on a human<br />
nature!<br />
6. We become brothers <strong>of</strong> God!<br />
7. He comes, the Son <strong>of</strong> God, in such quiet <strong>and</strong> such poverty! There is not<br />
a roll <strong>of</strong> drums or a blare <strong>of</strong> trumpets. He comes in such quiet <strong>and</strong> a<br />
star shines on Him. Is this not how it is when we receive Him in the<br />
Eucharist? We ascend the altar. There is not a roll <strong>of</strong> drums. There is<br />
not a blare <strong>of</strong> trumpets. Quietly we approach the altar <strong>and</strong> we truly<br />
receive God! He comes to us <strong>and</strong> enters our body in such love! Who are<br />
we that God remains with us this day in such love <strong>and</strong> comes to us to<br />
be so closely united to us!?<br />
8. We see the consecrated Host. But within the consecrated Host is truly<br />
God, in His divinity <strong>and</strong> His humanity.<br />
9. We look <strong>for</strong> those things that are visible. Are not the true treasures<br />
found in those things that are invisible? The reality is that this is<br />
God’s world! We see the things in front <strong>of</strong> our face <strong>and</strong> we do not<br />
realize how the world <strong>of</strong> Jesus <strong>and</strong> Mary truly is. We do not realize<br />
how they are with us this very day. Jesus <strong>Christ</strong>, the Son <strong>of</strong> God,<br />
remains with us this day in His divinity <strong>and</strong> humanity in the<br />
Eucharist. We are surrounded by His presence in one another. He
