When Jesus, the Creator of the universe, was born on earth He instantly became dependent upon His mother for His very life.
The Bread of Life needed the milk of His mother so He could live.
The One who made the sun and caused its light to heat the earth needed His mother to wrap His body in swaddling cloths so that He might be warm.
The One who’s heart was so full of love for humanity that He left Heaven to come and die for sinners—needed to feel His mothers arms wrapped around Him for comfort.
The One who made it all, controls it all and owns it all laid it all aside and became a helpless infant because He loved us so much.
“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,” 2 Cor. 8:9.
