For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on His shoulders. He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6 HCSB
If you have ever experienced the joy at the birth of a child, be your own or someone else's you know this joy. Couple this with the new birth of salvation and you have a complete package. Especially when the baby was the saviour. Imagine being Mary, knowing she had birthed the Son of God and now having to nurture and raise Him through infancy and childhood and waiting for His revealing.
Each of us went through a journey of waiting for salvation and experienced the joy of finally finding our saviour. The wise men sought the newborn king. We do not hear of them returning or coming to the saviour. May we be wise enough to seek Him and honour Him for coming and most importartly saving us from our sins. Amen!
