Christmas Day 2021

 

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!
