Quotes As a creature, human beings are "in relationship". Transcendence which characterizes man in relation to other creatures is like the case of a gardener who is responsible for the whole creation. That is why our land is holy. Likewise it is the habitat chosen by the son of God. Nature is the manifestation of the revelation of a God full of goodness. H. Exc. Most Rev. André GAUMOD , Bishop of Sherbrooke. (22 November 1997) Press Office of the Holy See At Christmas, God enters our lives so we may enter divine life. Humanity was looking to be saved, and God sends us a child! Humanity was hoping for the extraordinary, and God comes in everyday life. Humanity was waiting for something on which to lean, while God has need of us – the need for a mother to give nourishment and a father to provide protection.
