ADVENT IS HERE! Day 22 BUT MADE HIMSELF NOTHING Phil 2:7

It is hard to conceive or imagine
How God could have done what he did,

When he came in the form of a human

And chose on this planet to live.

Though present throughout the whole cosmos,
He made himself ever so small,
Just a cell in the womb of a woman,
Then a babe in a trough in a stall.

Though he formed both the earth and the heavens,
And all power and knowledge were his,
He now lays there so tiny and helpless,
Dependent on two teenage kids!

Though he came willing, knowing his future,
As a man he will learn it anew
And accept, as he did when in heaven,
What awaits him to save me and you.

Thank you for posting the Advent series by Major Webber - it's brought God's coming to us as the Christ child in a beautifully constructed way; easy to understand and consume intellectually and spiritually and deepened my wonder and admiration immensely.
