God taking flesh and becoming man is a great mystery. The Catholic Catechism teaches that God became man (1) to reconcile us with God, (2) so we would know God's love, (3) to be a model for us on holiness, and (4) to make us partakers of the divine nature. In this novena, we reflect on how the Infant Jesus is a model of holiness and how He embodies the 8 Beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-12).
