Jesus - An Undersold Miracle

Mary packing for the journey - How do you pack for what you don’t know, what diapers do we bring? Size 1, what if he is late and huge, 2s? Jesus’ birth could mean Mary’s death. Researching midwives in Bethlehem.

Humble Beginnings

Tradesman and a Teenager for parents

Wrapped in strips of rough cloth

Born in a stable

The straw, hay, hair, poop

The bodies, the noises, the warmth

Laid in a feeding trough

Covered in saliva, wet?,

Joseph if he was home could have made something better

Jesus was born into a worse situation than if Mary had stayed home

God chose the humblest of beginnings for the most powerful of KIngs

Humble beginnings undersell the miraculous moment

Heaven came low - all of heaven responds in worship

When you surrender to Jesus, all heaven worships

The angles who celebrated Jesus’ birth celebrate the exact same when we surrender our lives to Jesus and are reborn

Jesus’ birth means our death

Death to our sin, our past wrongs, our shortcomings

Jesus’ humble birth, means a humble person might find heaven’s glory
