JESUS BECAME FLESH

John 1:14 says, “The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood” (The MSG).

Let’s begin where the earthly ministry of Jesus began— in the womb of Mary.  The God of the universe, for a time, kicked against the wall of that womb.  He was born in the poverty of a peasant and spent his first night in the feed trough of a cow.  He didn’t have to, did he?  Jesus could have become a voice— a voice in the air.  He could have become a message— a message in the night.  Jesus could have become a light— a light in the night.  But he became flesh.  Why?

Jesus came to be near you.  Any concerns you might have about his power and love were removed from the discussion the moment he became flesh and entered the world.  What a beginning.  What an entrance.  And what a moment.
