Long ago, a Savior was born and hidden within a humble birth; covered with the cloak of humanity, His presence impacted this earth.
Although we remember His birthday, know that Christ is no longer a child; He stopped being an infant, who was… helpless, quiet, tender and mild.
He grew in strength and wisdom; He demonstrated His holy authority; He lived as He divinely taught; He set the example, for you and me.
He gave of Himself completely and paid the ultimate sacrifice. He embodied God’s covenant of love; His actions were timely and precise.
After suffering the shame of crucifixion, He was briefly buried in a rock-hewn tomb; three days later, He triumphantly exited with a glorified body from Resurrection’s womb.
Today He lives and sovereignly rules; so people of faith, it’s time to agree that we must continue to live Godly lives, seeing that… the manger is still empty! . . . Author Notes:
