Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born,
to us a Son is given,
and the government will be on His shoulders.
And He will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
The greatest of all kings has come to us.
He has not come as a high ruler, but as a lowly baby born in a manger.
He has not come as part of a condition, but as a free gift for all mankind.
The weight of the world is on His shoulders, and He bears it well for our sake.
He is the wisest above all, and He has knowledge of all things.
He is the God who performed miracles for Moses and Elijah.
He is a man which all can call Abba, and He will never cease to be.
He is a bringer of peace, so that He may overcome all the world's chaos.
He is the Messiah, our Savior, the one whom the prophets foretold.
He is God with us.
He is Jesus.
"Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace to those on whom His favor rests" (Luke 2:14)
Merry Christmas, Everyone!
