Bono talks about his revelation of Christmas

I’ve always admired Bono for his take on many things. I as many in the Christian community are always interested in where Bono finds himself in the journey. I find his honesty refreshing and there is no doubt that God has used him in many powerful ways. Here is a great quote from him on his revelation of Christmas in a St. Patricks Cathedral:

“The idea that God, if there is a force of Logic and Love in the universe, that it would seek to explain itself is amazing enough. That it would seek to explain itself and describe itself by becoming a child born in straw poverty, in sh*t and straw…a child… I just thought: “Wow!” Just the poetry … Unknowable love, unknowable power, describes itself as the most vulnerable. There it was. I was sitting there, and it’s not that it hadn’t struck me before, but tears came streaming down my face, and I saw the genius of this, utter genius of picking a particular point in time and deciding to turn on this.”
