Daddy - John 3:16 & 17

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. (John 3:16, 17 NIV)

This week we are going to take a Christmas walk in the scripture.

God LOVED and GAVE !!! This scripture is the most popular verse and we know it so well that sometimes we over use it or even don't get the true meaning of it. Christmas is about God giving his only son to us. Born in a manger, the star, the angels, the manger and the shepherds. King Herod and his wrath. All of it works together for our good. Wow!!! Jesus was both God and man on earth. That's a bit amazing!!!! Yes?

Why didn't he come as a big angel or a knight on a horse? Coming as a humble, non-threatening baby made him real and approachable. Like us. Relating to us. Nice. God had an amazing plan for us!!
