When I {Mia} stop and think about the fact that God humbled himself to live inside a women’s womb, starting out as a microscopic baby, growing inside Mary for nine months and then making that miraculous (and messy) journey from the womb to the world where He needed to have His umbilical cord cut, taking his first breath of air and crying out in that little baby voice “I’m here, I’m here, have no fear” (well, if we could have translated his cries, I think that’s what He might have been saying)….When I think about it all, I am overwhelmed. My God, so humble… My God, who so loved the world… My God, who listened to the angels sing that night… My God, so BIG and wrapped up so small… What a God.. What a Savior... What a Christmas! And now, here we are two days after the Christmas celebration and the presents are opened and maybe even exchanged at the store, the wrapping paper has been thrown away, maybe the tree that you put up is already on the street, I don’t know. But, what I do know is this…..Christ was born so that we could be born again and that celebration doesn't end the day after Christmas. May Christmas be a reminder for us all (I am preaching to myself) that our time on this side of heaven does not need to be lived in fear. God loves us, His son was born, died and rose for us. Death has no sting. The victory has been one. Trust Him. Trust Him. Trust Him! Party on, friends!
