“In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with #God,
and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
All things came to be through Him,
and without Him nothing came to be.
What came to be through him was Life,
and this Life was the Light of the human race;
the Light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness has not overcome it.
The True Light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world. ….”
“When the Angels went away from them to heaven,
the shepherds said to one another,
‘Let us go, then, to Bethlehem
to see this thing that has taken place,
which the Lord has made known to us.’
So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph,
and the Infant lying in the manger. …”
“… Joseph too went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth
to Judea, to the city of David that is called Bethlehem,
because he was of the house and family of David,
to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed, who was with Child.
While they were there,
the time came for her to have her Child,
and she gave birth to her firstborn Son.
She wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger,
because there was no room for them in the inn. …”

“… John summoned two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?’ … #Jesus said to them in reply, ‘Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind regain their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed,
the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the good news proclaimed to them. And blessed is the one who takes no offense at Me.'”
