Millions of babies are born every year. Yet there is something that sets this Child, whose birth we celebrate, apart from all others. It is not simply his humble beginnings or the miraculous nature of his birth. There is so much more because this Child is the only hope we have for peace and a future. This Child can wipe away every tear and drive away every fear. What Child is this?
An angel answers that question: “A Savior has been born for you.” What a stunning statement! This child looks nothing like what we would expect in a hero-savior. He’s weak, helpless, and mired in poverty. Yet this Child comes to “for you.” This Child is God’s gift given that first Christmas to save…us!
The Bible reading for this message is Luke 2:6-14.
