God Incarnate

Meditating on the Feast of the Incarnation brought me to this lovely little sculpture. Let me share with you what I see here:
Mary, icon of pure love, open to God and holding all things in her heart.
Joseph, protector of mother and child, traditionally depicted holding a lamp, the light of God's truth for the world.
Jesus, God-as-infant, in perfect peace, the still point of the turning world.
The whole is formed into an Open Circle, a circle of trust, love, compassion, and peace, open so that each of us may find our own way into the center. May you experience the peace of Incarnation.
