Advent Thoughts
Jesus had to become an earthly child.....so we could become a heavenly child
Jesus lived in a womb of darkness...so we could see the light
Jesus entered the earth through the humble and tramatic event of birth....so that we could easily and graciously recieve new life
Jesus could not speak or take care of himself as an infant.....so that we could have complete freedom in Him
Jesus cried to his mother in his need....so we could cry "Abba, Father" in our need
Jesus entered in a filthy, crowded, noisy, uncaring city....so we might live in a clean brilliant place called Zion
Jesus entered the limits of time.......so that we might taste eternity
Jesus was wrapped in swaddling clothes.....so that we could wear robes of righteousness
Jesus cared more for us than the glory of heaven......so that we could care for others more than ourselves
