The Incarnation

Tonight it happened. What a stunning testament to the faithful character of God, for Him to enter this broken world. The Incarnation: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. . . And from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace." (John 1:14, 16).

Therefore, let no one say God is distant.

He came into the world. He is in the world. He will be with the world.
He was with us. He is with us. He will be with us.
He saved the world. He is saving the world. He will save the world.

There is no better response than the great Orthodox hymn, "O Come let us worship":

Amen!
O come, let us worship God our King.
O come, let us worship and fall down before Christ,
our King and our God

O come, let us worship and fall down before Christ himself,
our King and our God.

O come, let us worship and fall down before Him.
