About this ebook
The story of the God-Man continues to be told and written century after century, never ceasing to be wondrous, always confirming our faith. Why the Son of God should have consented to become one of us and undergo so horrific a death to save us is beyond our comprehension. How could he love so unconditionally we who can be so unlovable? No one in history has brought such hope for ourselves as he who by his life and death taught us the true meaning of love.
With the blessing of our Lady, actual events were written from a different perspective in an attempt to touch the surface of his existence before us and with us. If this glimpse into his life and that of his family draws us closer to them, its purpose will have been fulfilled.

ST. MICHAEL
Archangel with mighty wings,
You sweep across the sky,
And banish inclement weather
From your pinnacle on high.
You overcome the wicked one
Who keeps earth in his grasp,
And guard all the innocent
Who reach your hand to clasp.
Protect us against all violence,
Guide us as we work and play,
Preserve us from malicious ones,
In sleep, watch us and pray.
We thank the God who made you
As you give him the praise due,
And lead us to that Paradise
Which awaits those who are true.
TURMOIL IN HEAVEN
Before the beginning, when darkness covered the abyss, the Word and Spirit were with God as he brought his angels into being. Pure spirits of unsurpassed beauty he made them, with free will, strength, intelligence, and swiftness, their magnificent wings setting them apart from the earthly creatures to come.

They had not needed to be created for
