Jesus, a Speechless Baby

How amazed the angels must have been when they saw the Creator born as a creature, the Word coming as a speechless baby.

2 Corinthians 8:9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

The best response from our hearts at Christmas is wonder and worship that God would send His precious Son into poverty to offer us salvation.

1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh . . . 

John 3:16,17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. 

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Jesus, my Savior, to Bethlehem come

Laid in a manger to sorrow and shame

Oh, it was wonderful, blest be His Name

Seeking for me -- Seeking for me
