In becoming human, Jesus becomes vulnerable to the world of
human beings. He becomes vulnerable not only to the human capacity to touch and
celebrate, but also to the many ways in which people diminish, betray, oppress
and abandon one another. Even though he is vulnerable to these, he does not
allow himself to be defined by them. Instead, he breaks apart the cycles of
destruction, not just for himself but also for us, thereby offering us new ways
of living together. ~ L. Gregory
