But we have gone to sleep. We have closed our eyes. The Light is not satisfied with the condition of the people. The Light knows the truth of the people that God had formed and called. The Light of God still sees the light shining among and in the people.
Light loves light.
God loves the people. God decides to again and again call the people to wake up. God saw a great opportunity in Mary and Joseph of Nazareth. God saw in them the opportunity for awakening. God saw in them the opportunity to bring one into this world of seeming darkness who would be clear about the light shining through him.
