Over the course of this Advent season, my family has been counting the days until Christmas by looking at a different name of Jesus each day. I am overwhelmed by the awesomeness of God.
He is Immanuel, God with us. He is the Prince of Peace. He is the King of Kings. He is Lord and Savior. He is Christ, the Messiah. He is the Light of the World and the Bright Morning Star. He is the Bread of Life. He is the Word. He is the Great Physician. He is the Lamb of God and the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. He is Rabbi and Teacher. He is the Chief Cornerstone. He is our Friend. He is the Good Shepherd. He is a Servant. He is our Redeemer. He is the Great I AM. He is the Alpha and the Omega. He IS…
And yet, “Christ Jesus, who, though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made Himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:5-11
Merry Christmas~
May you be filled to overflowing with the incredible love of God.
