À propos de ce contenu audio
Reflecting on St. Luke 2:7—“She brought forth her firstborn Son, wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn”—this meditation invites us to contemplate the humility of God’s coming. Christ did not arrive in brilliance or spectacle, but in fragility: a newborn who cried, breathed, and needed to be held.
Rev. Fr. Dr. Timothy (Tenny) Thomas draws on the wisdom of St. Athanasius, who reminds us that Christ took our dust so that we might receive His glory. God did not remain distant from human weakness; He entered it fully, sharing our hunger, limits, tears, and exhaustion. In doing so, weakness itself was transformed into a place of divine presence.
During the Nativity Fast, we are invited to recognize that glory often hides in what feels small, tired, or vulnerable. This meditation encourages us to offer one weakness to God—without shame, fear, or excuse—and to allow Him to breathe His strength into the places where we feel most fragile. For the God who took our dust is the same God who gives us His glory.
