Intro:
ILL: Look at Mary’s Child
There is an old legend which maintains that when Jesus was a baby growing up in Nazareth, the neighbors used to say when they were discouraged or depressed, “Let us go and see Mary’s child.”
After looking upon the precious One, sunshine and peace returned and the distraught souls returned to their tasks with high heart.
