Luke 2:4-7
“And Joseph also went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth to Judea, to the town of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David. To be enrolled with Mary, his espoused (married) wife, who was about to become a mother. And while they were there, the time came for her delivery. And she gave birth to her Son, her Firstborn; and she wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room or place for them in the inn.”
God made Himself flesh so He could take away the sins of the world.
The story of the very first Christmas was humble, yet the most powerful and loving birth ever recorded in history.
All humanity changed in an instant.
When Jesus was born, love filled the earth.
Love came down and lifted us up.
The angels came to tell the shepherds of this beautiful birth.
The stars in the heavens also told the story.
As we do all tasks that we do to ensure a beautiful Christmas day, may we remember the miracle that God sent long ago.
The miracle of all miracles.
The miracle that would restore the relationship between God in the heavens and us here on this earth.
We are able to sit in the Lord’s presence.
His Holy Spirit resides in our spirits.
We are One with Him again.
Today I am so very grateful that Jesus was born to Mary and the world was changed forever.
May you find a few precious moments to praise the Lord for His plan to reestablish love here on this earth.
