"I will be a Father to Him and He shall be a Son to Me..." - Hebrews 1:5
I love to tell the story about the day a bird, caught in our chimney, flew into our house. We tried desperately to get it out the door, but it didn't get the message. After a while, totally frustrated, I had the ridiculous thought,
"If I could become a bird for a few seconds and talk its language, I could show it how to be free."
Then, I thought for a minute and I remembered that God had done just that!
The Creator of the universe became one of His own creatures - a man - in order to communicate perfectly with mankind. Jesus took on a human body and personality, with all its limitations, so He could show you and I how to be free and understand how to have a relationship with God.
When we get to know the God who loves us so much that He would humble Himself to become a man, then every day will have a sense of wonder.
