O King of nations, and their Desired,
the Cornerstone who makes all one:
come and save our race,
whom You formed out of clay.
the Cornerstone who makes all one:
come and save our race,
whom You formed out of clay.
It's an exhausting journey from to Bethlehem, and one of the longest in Our Lady's life! As Mary and Joseph enter the city, every door is closed. Each knock brings another refusal!The sword of sorrow is already wounding Our Lady's Heart, itself so young, pure and tender. And the cold sends chills right to their souls.
But the King of nations, the Desired One must be born, so again the Father provides and a lone soul offers Them a place of shelter, a nearby cave. The Saviour of the human race is born in a cave and placed on a straw filled manger! He is born amidst two pure Hearts that love Him dearly, Mary and Joseph. And the Angels sing and adore their Infant God, drawing and inspiring the poor shepherds to do the same. Heaven on earth! And in a cave!
Today the world is again closing the door to Jesus. Many nations do not want Him in their country. The hearts of many are cold, filled with hatred and violence. It is the lack of love that kills: abortion; infanticide; fratricide; Suicide! How many Herod's are out there today?
Mother Mary wants our hearts joined to Hers to offer reparation, make amends for the coldness of the world. Jesus is comforted by our love. Gather around Him (in the tabernacle) and tell Him how much you love Him, and thank Him for forming you out of clay (dust), and beg Him: "Come, Lord Jesus, and save our race!"
