Consecration to the Holy Child
The
Devotion
to the Miraculous Infant Jesus of Prague began in the Czech Republic and has
since spread from central Europe throughout the world. While little has been
said about Christ's infancy, through His words; visionaries and saints, we have
learned much about the importance of the 'state
of infancy' and the
child-like qualities that one needs to adopt in order to enter into God's
kingdom.
The very qualities of child-like simplicity,
trust, humility and dependancy that characterize children
need be contemplated, accepted and eventually adopted in our own lives as we
live and struggle in a world of challenges and contradictions. Not so much
'childish' as child-like in nature, through prayer we humbly ask the Holy
Infant to wean us of our need to control our family, friends and own personal
lives as He teaches us to surrender all things to His will. With trust and faith
in His words: "Ask and you shall Receive, Knock and the door shall Open", we
actively place our needs in His little hands in the hope that He will continue
to show us what it means to be more like Him. In this respect, as our encounter
with the King of Kings and Lord of Lords deepens, the lessons
taught and shown to us through this particular devotion become even more crucial
to our ability to successfully navigate through a chaotic world.
The Miraculous Infant Jesus will be presented
in this website with prayers,
novenas
and
photos
so that all may find fulfillment in their own personal and private devotion.
Enjoy!
