First Christmas

The following was written by Nancy Leigh DeMoss, and was just too awesome not to share. Read, ponder, and worship The King!

What Happened on the First Christmas?
Think with me about how many amazing things happened on the first Christmas. 

• The God who opens the womb, giving the gift of children, became a child growing in the womb of a woman.
• The One we depend on for everything became dependent on human parents.
• The One who holds the universe in His hands was held in the arms of Mary.
• The One who created the first woman was born of a woman.
• The Ancient of Days became a newborn.
• The Helper became a helpless baby.
• The Creator became a creature.

Psalm 29:4 tells us God’s voice is powerful and majestic. That powerful, majestic voice was reduced to a baby’s cry. If you think about it, Christmas is astonishing. This God in flesh deserves our thanks and worship.
