I remember when Krew was born on Christmas morning two years ago and holding him on my chest as the sun shone through the window, making out every perfect feature. I cherish those first moments after becoming a mother and can only imagine how Mary felt holding her son, the Light of the World and to feel needed by someone who everyone would one day need. People around the world who had awaited the Messiah's birth, awoke that morning with new hope knowing He would bring comfort and joy even in their heartache. The morning can remind us that because of Christ's birth, we can always find hope in a new day.
