“I am the voice of one crying out in the desert, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”

Brothers and sisters: When the fullness of time had come, God sent his Son,   born of a woman, born under the law,   to ransom those under the law,   so that we might receive adoption as sons. As proof that you are sons,   God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts,   crying out, “Abba, Father!” So you are no longer a slave but a son,   and if a son then also an heir, through God.

Gal 4:4-7

[canonizedandotherwise]

And the Word became flesh     and made his dwelling among us,     and we saw his glory,     the glory as of the Father’s only-begotten Son,     full of grace and truth.

    A voice was heard in Ramah,         sobbing and loud lamentation;     Rachel weeping for her children,         and she would not be consoled,         since they were no more.

Now there were shepherds in that region living in the fields  and keeping the night watch over their flock. The angel of the Lord appeared to them  and the glory of the Lord shone around them,  and they were struck with great fear. The angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I proclaim to you good news of great joy  that will be for all the people. For today in the city of David  a savior has been born for you who is Christ and Lord. And this will be a sign for you:  you will find an infant wrapped in swaddling clothes  and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was a multitude of the heavenly host with the angel, praising God and saying:     “Glory to God in the highest         and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
