This week in Christ's life… (37)

This week, Jesus is 37 weeks old.   His skin has become thicker and pinker.  His lungs are increasing their production of surfactant, to help keep the air sacs open.  His fingernails extend beyond his fingertips and his umbilical cord is approximately 2 feet long!  Infant Jesus, help us to give of our time, talent, and treasure to encourage all parents to carry their children to term and give them the gift of life.
