EMMANUEL...God With Us

Is there any way to describe it? The All-Powerful, Omnipotent, Omniscient Creator of the Universe, willing to clothe Himself in human flesh!
God near us.

To become a Babe and go through the learning process on a rebellious planet; the Pure surrounded by selfish human beings...
God with us.

The Eternal One, who hung the stars in the sky by the word of His mouth now a learner - taught by finite people, with limited understanding...
God like us.

If a brilliant scientist was willing to be incarnated as an ant and grow up in an ant colony, the debasement would be less than Christ’s...
God love us.

And if the ant/ scientist was divorced by the wife he adored and felt the human pain as an ant, maybe we can fathom slightly what Jesus endured...
God bless us.

Oh yes, the ant was rejected by the colony, was ridiculed and often had to flee for his life, finally being tortured to death by the ants...
God forgive us.

On earth sometimes we see examples of Love, the mightiest power in the Universe - it causes people to accept great sacrifice, endure overwhelming hardship and forgive grievous sin...
God help us.

Only a heart of love could cause King Jesus to leave the splendor and adoration of heaven for a bleak and rude experience among those who needed Him so...
God fill us.

What humbleness, to give up the capabilities and talents of a human to become an ant, especially an ant who was unappreciated and rarely welcome among the others...
God save us.

And to think that we humans can share in the greatest power there is, the greatest power God has. We can exhibit divine love as we unselfishly bless those around us...
God with us...and we with God.
