The Word Became Flesh

"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us."
John 1:14

Reflection

God did not send a message: He came in person. He chose to feel hunger, cold and sleepiness, just like us.

Prayer

Lord, thank You for coming to live among us. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What does it mean that God came in person?
  2. Did Jesus feel hunger, cold and sleepiness like us?
  3. How does it feel to know God understands what you feel?

5-minute activity

Make a list of things Jesus experienced as a child: eating, sleeping, playing, learning. The child checks the ones they do too. Talk about God being close to us. Read John 1:14.
