Before the foundation of the earth
Father, Son and Holy Spirit agreed that it was time
To fulfil the mission to and on earth for The Son
His predestined and preordained landing place
Was a mattress of straw in a manger in a stable
Although it be peculiar and difficult to comprehend
from an earthly perspective . . .
It was the choice of The King of the Universe
So today as we commemorate His coming to Earth . . .
It is profound to revisit His birthing place
And compare it to His preference today . . .
You might not be able to match the straw bed,
Nor could you provide palatial luxury . . .
But that is not His preference neither . . .
It is the ground of your heart He is after . . .
His eternal preference . . .
A preferred choice which exuberantly excites Him!
For He will put His roots down
He will make it His abode
And do a reconciling and restorative work
which will be of glorious proportions
and that will last forever and ever and ever . . .
So will you not give consideration . .
to the opening of your heart to Him today?
It will be the greatest gift you can give Him ever!
