Wow, there is something in my eye. Just like the last post, the story of our salvation is never like we expect. But he loves everyone and comes in the most humble way to prove it. We must humble ourselves and learn to love everyone. I can’t do it yet, but that is our calling especially at Christmas.

I struggled hearing the words.
I found the lyrics. Read along while listening:
“How should a King come?
Even a child knows the answer of course,
In a coach of gold with a pure white horse.
In the beautiful city in the prime of the day,
And the trumpets should cry and the crowds make way.
And the flags fly high in the morning sun,
And the people all cheer for the sovereign one.
And everyone knows that’s the way that it’s done.
That’s the way that a King should come.
How should a King come?
Even a commoner understands,
He should come for His treasures,
And His houses and lands.
He should dine upon summer strawberries and milk,
And sleep upon bedclothes of satin and silk.
And high on a hill His castle should glow,
With the lights of the city like jewels below.
And everyone knows that’s the way that it’s done,
That’s the way that a King should come.
How should a King come?
On a star filled night into Bethlehem,
Rode a weary woman and a worried man.
And the only sound in the cobblestone street,
Was the shuffle and the ring of their donkey’s feet.
And a King lay hid in a virgin’s womb,
And there were no crowds to see Him come.
At last in a barn in a manger of hay,
He came and God incarnate lay.
And the angels cried “glory glory to God”.
Earth was silent so heaven rang!
“Glory glory to God.”
Men were dumb so the angels sang,
“Glory glory to God,
Peace on earth good will to men,
Glory glory to God”.

When this King comes again all will mourn. Pray that you will have strength to overcome and to stand when He does.
Merry Christmas to all!

“Why Christmas Remains the Greatest Story of All Time” as follows;
The complete story of Christ must be told – His miraculous conception and birth as Immanuel, “God with us” to The Word and Rock to Savior and Lord.
Every step of the way Christ living as a man on Earth proved we can live by His example. Also, knowing God Himself can experience travail/suffering of His beloved creation, mankind and being the sacrifice who delivers mankind from the source of that suffering – sin.
Christ IS The Way, The Truth and The Life. He LIVES so that all men may know why His whole story is the greatest story ever known to man.
