Christmas countdown.
November 24, 2022
This season we start the Christmas countdown. Shopping lists, budget juggling, wish lists. This feature will be focusing on something different.
What if Jesus had NOT come. What if He did not arrive in a human, baby body, grow, live, breath, suffer, laugh, pray, argue, and comfort as one of us?
I pondered with fresh eyes and heart his statement, “I have come that you might have life, and might have it more abundantly.” Jesus did not have to come, He chose to, on purpose–so our lives would be fuller, richer.
God could have showed himself only in nature. His power, creativity, beauty, is evident. He could have dropped on us a rule book.
But He chose to give us an example walking beside us. Our abundant life starts there.
