Are you exhausted? Women today really do feel the weight of the world on their shoulders. Every morning we are greeted with a long list of to-dos: get the kids up and out the door on time, have a meaningful quiet time, put in a full day at the office, spend an hour at the gym, prepare a healthy and delicious meal (organic and locally grown, of course), and make sure the sink sparkles before you go to bed.

Everyone, Christians included, knows what it's like to feel isolated and alone. We've all wondered if anyone really understands us or truly cares about our lives. The good news is that we aren't alone, and the gospel tells us why: Jesus, the Son of God, came to earth to be forever united with his people-to be one of us. In fact, he has so united himself with us that the Bible says we are literally "in" him. Far from being alone and lost, the Incarnation...
