The Star
Sometimes we have to go back to the stable.
The glorious sacrifice of the triune God, the power Of God manifested in this child born of flesh,Conceived of the Spirit, a gift freely offered.
It was the gift we needed most: a Savior, the Holy Son of God.
In a stable the light of The Glory of God surrounded the child.
The promised Messiah, the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.
In a stable the star that brought the magi, the gifts laid before him.
Gold for The king the bitter perfumes of myrrh, and frankincense.
Baby Jesus Gifted at birth with the perfume that would anoint him in death.
I often think of the power that must have been present that day, the joy.
The power Of God manifested in this child born of flesh,
conceived of the Spirit, Born of a virgin.
A gift freely offered.
A gift we celebrate at Christmas, the Grace of God given so that
man born in sin, has the chance to be redeemed.
In the stable was peace. The star over Bethlehem shone brightly.
Merry Christmas!
