It all happened in a moment, a most remarkable moment that was like none other. ...God became a man. While the creatures of earth walked unaware, Divinity arrived. Heaven opened herself and placed her most precious one in a human womb. God as a fetus. Holiness sleeping in a womb. The creator of life being created. God was given eyebrows, elbows, two kidneys, and a spleen. He stretched against the walls and floated in the amniotic fluids of his mother. God had come near. ...To think of Jesus in such a light is--well, it seems almost irreverent, doesn't it? ...But don't do it. Let him be as human as he intended to be. Let him walk into the mire and much of our world. For only if we let him in can he pull us out. (as written by Max Lucado in Celebrating Christmas With Jesus)
...because Jesus came we have hope...
Merry Christmas
