One Christmas I shared with my very young daughter how Jesus came to earth as a man to save mankind from sin. "Do you want Jesus in your heart?" I asked her.

"No," she said, adamant, "l want to be like Mary and have him in my tummy!"

I smiled.

Author Notes
This little girl is now grown and working toward her Masters in Divinity!

[The chief priests and scribes] were indignant and said to Him, â??Do You hear what these are saying?â??
And Jesus said to them, â??Yes. Have you never read,
â??Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
You have perfected praiseâ???â?? Matt 21:16
