OUR FOREVER GIFT
According to the apostle of love, the gospel writer
John, our Heavenly Father loved
us so much that He quite willingly “gave his only begotten Son” that, believing on Him, we would have
eternal and abundant life. (John 3:16 – John 10:10)
Centuries before
Christ’s advent, the eagle-eye prophet,
Isaiah, foretold His coming:
Isaiah 9:6 (New King James Version)
For unto us a Child is
born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
As the child that was born, he was fully man. As the SON that was given, He was fully GOD.
As the child that was born, He experienced
hunger, thirst, pain, loneliness, isolation, indifference, sorrow, and even
death.
As the SON that was
given, HE IS The Living Bread, The Water of Life, The Great Physician, The
Burden Bearer, The Friend of Sinners, The Comforter, The Resurrection and The
Life.
During this Advent
season, celebrate the CHILD and the SON by fully embracing and sharing the good
news about The Greatest Gift of All…JESUS
CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD and THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD. He belongs to us and we belong to Him,
henceforth, now and evermore. Amen!
