full of love

So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son. John 1:14 NLT

Jesus was full of love. I wonder how his brothers and sisters handled that? Did he get accused of being 'goodey two shoes'? As they were surprised that He was God's Son, He must have been a quiet, non-descript individual.

, as this would not be in keeping with the saviour from Israel's enemies.

The family, also, did not seem to benefit from any premature miracles, why else would He have told His mother at the wedding,  "My time has not yet come!" Did they feel cheated?

Where was the gold, frankincense and myrrh? Perhaps it was used in the fleeing to Egypt. He obviously did not come with a dowry,  otherwise He would not need to be kept by His friends.

Yet, Jesus left all His glory, the glory of the Son of God, and came to earth, born in a smelly stable, seen by smelly shepherds. Although there was no room for Him, He has made room for us.

Thank You Jesus! All glory to You! Amen!
