• Wishing you a very merry CHRISTmas!

  (repost… but the message never changes!)

  Long before the conception, it was foreseen that this baby was to be someone special. He was more than a precious bundle of joy and yet He remained swaddled in nothing fancier than our modern day standard of rags. He was born like the rest of us, labor pains, umbilical cord, suckling for nourishment. His birth announcement didn’t play up His height and weight, no picture of His sweet cheeks and dark hair. His announcement wasn’t baby blue or pastel green. His announcement was a star, high in the sky, which emphatically shone above mountains and through valleys for all to see. He was soft and pink, smelling of newborn skin. His feet were curled, His fingers may have been long, His eyes dark and His breaths strong. How many times have we said there is no greater gift than a newborn baby, breathing sweetly and cooing gently? How oft we forget the greater gift…

  the gift of a newborn King, The Everlasting Father,

  and the Prince of Peace.

  Love to all,

  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

  Isaiah 9:6
