One of my friend’s favorite Christmas songs is “Mary, Did You Know?”
In it the birth mother of Jesus is asked if she knows the importance and uniqueness of her baby boy.
What did Mary think as Jesus grew to heal the sick, calm the storm, and walk on water?
You see, friend, that tiny babe was actually the Creator of the universe!
Later in life, Mary had to endure watching her innocent son being nailed to a cross.
But the Bible story doesn’t end there.
Mary soon came to know He died for her sins, as well as yours and mine,
so one day we might join Him in Heaven.
Yes, Jesus may have entered His creation quietly, but He left in a rumble that echoes to this day.
And His next earthly visit won’t be as a humble child. It will be as
Mighty King and Conqueror!
