A few nice jesus christ images I found:
Hodie Christus natus est
Image by Lawrence OP
"Today Christ is born, today the Saviour has appeared. Today the angels are singing on earth and the archangels shouting for joy. Today the righteous rejoice, saying ‘Glory to God in the highest.’ Alleluia" – the Magnificat antiphon for Christmas day.

Washed in the Precious Blood
Image by Lawrence OP
"But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) he entered once for all into the Holy Place, taking not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.
For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God. " – Hebrews 9:11-14.
Detail from a stained glass window in the baptistery of St James’ church, Spanish Place in London. July is the month of the Precious Blood, because the Solemnity of the Precious Blood used to be celebrated on 1 July.
Hodie Christus natus est
