When did God become fully human?

When an egg was fertilised?
When cells divided?
When Mary felt her first kick?
When Jesus took his first breath?

When did God become fully human?

When he chose to resist temptation?
When he entered the kingdom as a child?
When he fought, by not fighting back?
When he hung with us; for us?

Here is a gift of true worth: divine presence. Amid the white noise of a world surfing the airwaves; amid the narrow casts, broadcasts and podcasts; caught in the radio signals, mobile downloads and webcasts; up with the static and the crackle of interference… one simple signal still pulses from ages past, like a heartbeat:

Are you receiving me?
Are you receiving me?
Are you receiving me?
