“So the Word became human and made his home among us.” (John 1:14, NLT)

“People have always wondered about the image of God.
Societies have speculated.
Tribes have cogitated.
And we’ve reached a variety of conclusions.

We’ve fancied God as ferocious, magical, fickle, and maniacal.
A god to be avoided, dreaded, and appeased.
But never in mankind’s wildest imaginings
did we consider that God would enter the world as an infant.”

(Max Lucado, Because of Bethlehem, Day 6)
