Christmas reflections

As I watched our Christmas play, I couldn't help but reflect, even as I laughed and clapped, on a God who loves us too much to let us be separated from Him. How could that great Being come to us through a peasant girl's womb? More than that, why would He? I guess He wants us to know that He loves even the least of us more than we can fathom. But what humility! What amazing depth of love that not even the backwater peasants of the world's most hated people are forgotten by God.
