I suppose people thought Jesus lying in a feeding trough holding onto his baby blanket looked kinda cute. Let's not forget the smell of cow dung that filled the air. Life is like that. You take the good with the bad, the sweet smell of baby shampoo with the pungent odor of manure.
On bright and cloudy days, that baby who grew up is with his people. Because Jesus is human, he understands you. Because he is divine, he can help you. As the Way to God, he is uniquely able to carry us home.
