Becoming man, the Word of God
concentrates all his love in a human heart.
The mystery of the Incarnation is therefore the mystery of divine love
made sensible and tangible.

Christmas crib, Rome 2001

May the celebration of the birth of our Savior
raise up in each of us the certainty of God's love
and turn us into living icons of this saving love.

Heartfelt greetings
