CHRISTMAS ~ WEEK TWO

God became man:  the divine Son became a Jew; the Almighty appeared on earth as a helpless human baby, unable to do more than lie and stare and wriggle and make noises, needing to be fed and changed and taught to talk like any other child.  And there was no illusion or deception in this:  the boyhood of the Son of God was a reality.  The more you think about it, the more staggering it gets.  Nothing in fiction is so fantastic as is thid truth of the incarnation.    ~J.I Packer (1926)

Angles sing over fields of light,

There is born tonight

A Son, a Savior

Joyful tidings are on the wing;

A newborn King

A Son, a Savior

Find this Christ, and share the joy

Of Mary's boy

A Son, A Savior

There's redemption within His hand

For every man

Heaven sent us a Savior

The Father has give a Son.

~Bill Barstone 1988

Heavenly Father, help us to meditate on these truths and fill our hearts and lives with the joy of knowing and loving You. the Son of God and Savior to those who put their trust in You.  Amen
