See the bright and shining star? It hovers
over the greatest miracle on earth; the birth of a Savior, the baby Jesus, the
One who came to save us. Sit in solemn wonder and fill your heart with the awe
of it. It is the greatest story ever told and the greatest gift given to
mankind. He came for you.
This innocent child would grow into the
sinless man, fully man and fully God. He took our place. This Christmas be
reminded of the miracle that is Jesus at His first coming, His most humble
beginnings, born in a manger in the presence of common shepherds. In His second coming, we will see Him in full
majesty as the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. At first He came as a Lamb.
He will come back as a Lion. Bow in reverence and solemn wonder.
But the angel said to them, “Do
not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the
people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you. He is the
Messiah, the Lord. Luke 2:10-11
Jesus,
Don’t
let us get comfortable with the Christmas story and take it for granted. Give
us the true hope and joy of the miraculous moment when You came into this
world. The Son of God, the light of the world, the Messiah, the Lord stepped
from eternity into space and time. Glory to God in the highest and on earth
peace goodwill toward men. (luke 2)
Amen
