The story is told of a mother putting away the nativity set after the feast of Epiphany, as many of you will be doing this evening or tomorrow as is the custom, when she noticed the Baby Jesus was missing. She asked her four-year-old son if he knew where Jesus was. He replied, ‘Yes, but He doesn’t want me to tell anybody.’ ‘Why not?’ She asked. ‘Because He doesn’t want you to put Him away with the decorations,’ he said.
Wisdom from the lips of a child!
