As we approach Christmas I am reminded of how much I need Jesus in my day to day activities. How fortunate I am to know he is still alive. He has saved me from the darkness and emptiness that a life without his peace offers.
Accepting his birth, his coming to earth as man, taking on our weaknesses and propensity to imperfection, even his ability to master those and remain true to his natural righteousness as the Son of God is easy for most.
But as we rejoice in his birth let us keep in mind Psalms 89 and 98. There was a reason he came. He was here to complete the oath to David...not as man sees and understands, but in a way that is far beyond.
We are to continue to worship him as they did on that first night. For one day he will return, not as a newborn without skill or ability, but as the man who bore our sins on the cross and came out the winner.
Sing to him a new song continually...for he has done much for all of us.
