Thankful Thursday - The Birth of Our Savior!

Luke 2: 6And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
7And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
He split time in two.
He is the first.
He is the last.
He is everything in between.
He is conqueror.
He is redeemer of the broken hearted.
He is the restorer of relationships.
He is healer of all wounds.
He knows the innermost parts of my heart.
My Provider.
My Champion.
Powerful Advocate.
He is trustworthy and true.
He holds the stars in His hand!
Wars are waged against Him…..He is victorious!
Lies are broadcast about Him…..He is truth!
Governments try to crush Him…..He is sovereign!
Legislators work to erase Him…..He is ever-present!
Schools no longer pray to Him…..He is our intercessor!
The media scorns His name…..His name gives life.
Evil tried to kill Him…..HE LIVES!
Praise the Name of the Lord!
May your find peace, hope and love in the baby born to be our Savior! Be Blessed, Lynn

Great post! What's so amazing to me is that he came as a baby to a poor family, yet is king of Kings and Lord of Lords!
