For a number of years I have thought that pro-life Christians (that should be ALL Christians) should make a much bigger deal out of the feast of the Annunciation on March 25 -- exactly nine months before Christmas.

After all, the incarnation began, not at Christmas but at the miracle of Jesus' conception.

Unfortunately, when I was a Protestant, I thought feasts like that were just about Mary. They are really about our Lord.

Let's move the celebration to March 25 and not tell the secularists! It'll drive them crazy :-)

Yes, it would and you're right Jesus became human and flesh when he was conceived by the Holy Spirit and grew in his mother's womb just like the rest of us.

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth (John 1:1-5, 14)

Amazing coincidence: Last night at our Christmas eve service our pastor used this very pro-life message. An insert was in each church bulletin. It is available through Lutherans for Life at:

http://www.lutheransforlife.org/Catalog/christmas.htm

It emphasizes that Jesus was once a zygote. Pastor actually had a very large box, beautifully wrapped that children unwrapped. Inside the large box was a small box and a smaller box, etc. Eventually was a very small box the size of a ring box and inside was a very tiny 7 week old embryo. The children saw that all body parts are formed at 7 weeks. Pastor emphasized that that is what Jesus looked like at seven weeks and that is what the children looked like at seven weeks.

Merry Christmas to all Freepers and to Jim Robinson and family.

You're welcome. It made for a very memorable Christmas Eve service.

>inside was a very tiny 7 week old embryo

Wow, where did he come across those? LOL

Seriously, that is very good and puts things into perspective for adults and kids too.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

Oops. I should have said a model of a 7 week embryo. My bad.

You have united, O Lord,
your divinity with our humanity,
and our humanity with your divinity,
your life with our mortality
and our mortality with your life
You have assumed what is ours
and you have given us what is yours
for the life and salvation of our souls.
To you be glory for ever!

She's not the first person I heard this from this year...and funny how it never struck me before. Wrote the following about it a bit earlier this month:


Interesting to think
that in this day
where the unborn
are simply fetuses,
tissues unworthy of consideration
except at the whim of their mother,
that it was the unborn John,
leaping in his mother's womb
who was the first
to salute
in the presence of Jesus?

O Lord,
help us to see
that even the unborn
are not unknown to you,
and have value
as children made in your image.

Amen.

What a beautiful poem! Thank you for posting it!

Did you follow the news story this week of the "fetus" cut from its mother's womb by another woman. The media were so confused as to how to report the story. Following the brutal slaying of the birth mother, an Amber alert was issued for a "Missing Fetus". Shortly after that, the MSM reported that the "baby" was now safe in a hospital where she was being evaluated. Was it a fetus or a baby? The MSM is still trying to figure this out while we remain fully confident that this was the child of the murdered woman.

Christmas Blessings to you and your family!

Excellent post. Thank you!

" One dark day in January of 1973, SATAN donned judicial robes! Robes flowing, gavel in hand, he swept onto the floor of the United States Supreme Court. He presided over the most atrocious travesty of justice that ever took place, and he declared - we now have the 'right' to murder the most innocent, in what should be the safest place in the universe for them! And since then, tens of millions of babes have been assassinated in their own mothers' wombs! The darkness indeed grows deeper."
Fr. John Corapi S.O.L.T.
