I don’t know about you, but as much as I love the celebration of the coming of the Christ. I am so glad he didn’t stay a baby, but that he grew and fulfilled his destiny to change the world!
52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. Luke 2:52(NIV)
Tis the season to be jolly and joyous
With a burst of pleasure, we feel it all right
It’s the season when the saints can employ us
To spread the news about peace and to keep love alive
Either way, let these words from this favorite filter through your mind.
Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.
Here’s a nice video from the Skit Guys that reminds us how Christ coming was/is the center of history. For years, the people of God looked forward to that day and now we look back with the same expectant joy!
