My church's Music director [in 45 sec.] helpfully addresses the state of 'kid-less-ness', in his reminder of Hannah, and how her shame was taken through the child born to her. Similarly, the child born to us in Christ, takes away all of our greatest shame [in being 'fruitless' sinners]. Now all Christians enjoy a 'fulfilled life' with the best of 'fruit' manifested through our attachment to the Christ child. [Indeed, we are branches of Him The Vine, and apart from Him we can bear no good thing.] Here's the link to Gabriel Sternberg's commemoration of St. Hannah Day [9 DEC]. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9DqEHHp1yI0
