Incarnational Christmas

I have been reading the Christmas passages again this year and just love them. They are so refreshing and take me back to special moments with my family. My dad always read the Christmas story to the family before we would open all the gifts.
Jesus came into the world as a fragile baby. He came in a vulnerable way to live a life of subversive love. Jesus came as God in flesh. God incarnate. To reveal the Father.
As I once again consider the story of the Christ child, I am challenged again to live in an incarnational way in the world that God has placed me in.

Oh Holy God
Fill Us With Your Glory

Oh Holy God
Incarnate Yourself Anew

Oh Holy God
Descend to Us We Pray

Oh Holy God
This Christmas Day
