Jenny smirked bitterly as she saw boys and girls all over town making cribs to put a small baby doll, they called Jesus, into it. “What good can that baby do?” she thought bitterly. “It’s time we stopped these silly traditions!”
It was a chilly winter evening in the city of Mumbai. It had suddenly rained, and the slight drizzle gently fell onto the bustling streets, casting a gloom over the crowd. This did not help Jenny’s mood as she wandered through the streets, her heart heavy with depression.
Jenny had been struggling with feelings of emptiness and purposelessness for months. Despite her outward success and popularity as a comedian, she felt lost and alone. As she walked in the drizzle, Jenny stumbled upon a small, quaint church tucked away in a quiet alley. The warm glow of the candles and the soft carols drifting from within beckoned her to enter.
Inside, Jenny found a peaceful sanctuary. The priest, a kind-eyed man with a warm smile, greeted her and invited her to join the service.
Since it was raining outside, and the church appeared a good place for shelter, she decided to stay.
As Jenny listened to the story of Jesus’ birth, she felt a strange sense of connection. The words of the priest spoke directly to her heart, echoing her deepest longings and fears.
The priest spoke of the darkness that had descended upon humanity, of the sin and shame that had separated us from God.
“Then the baby in the cradle grew up!” said the priest, “His light pierced the darkness, and gave us the gift of salvation that has been offered to all humanity through the birth, life, death, and resurrection of that baby who we all know as Jesus.”
As Jenny listened, she felt the weight of her despair slowly lifting. She realized that she had been trying to fill the void in her heart with fleeting pleasures and accomplishments, but that true fulfillment could only be found in a relationship with the same grown up baby.
The priest’s words painted a vivid picture of the love and redemption that God had offered to humanity. Jenny felt her heart stirring, responding to the call of the Gospel. As the service came to a close, she felt a sense of peace and hope that she had not felt in years.
She approached the priest, tears streaming down her face, and asked him to pray with her. As they prayed, Jenny felt the presence of God enveloping her, filling her with a sense of love, forgiveness, and redemption.
At that moment, Jenny received the gift of salvation, and her life was forever changed. The darkness that had once consumed her was replaced by the light of God’s love, and she knew that she would never be alone again.
As she went out, she smiled at the boys and girls making cribs for the baby..!
