John 1:1-3, 14 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made...And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. ESV
What kind of a God is this that would become flesh and live among us? Well, the kind of God that God is not for us to decide. God is who He is, and we can't change that. We can't change who God is. But we can seek His help in learning what He wants us to know about Himself.
Indeed, becoming born as a baby was a way for us to come to know more about God than any of what had been spoken and written by prophets over many centuries.
If we want to come to know God we have to come to know Jesus. We need to know about His birth, His life, His teachings, His miracles, His death on the Cross, His resurrection, and His return to Heaven. We can learn these things from the written word, the Bible.
The things we learn about Jesus we can ponder, and believe, and even sing about.
Today I came across this song, You're Here, by Francesca Battistelli. I hope you'll be blessed by it.
