God Stooping Down #574

The Son of God, the Second Person of the Trinity, left the side of His Father to lay in a manger. He left behind the perfection, sinless purity, and glorious light of heaven. He entered a world marked by war, fallen in sin, and dark with the sting of death. He emptied Himself [of His divine prerogatives], taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men? (Philippians 2:7).

He entered the world with little notice. Bethlehem was teeming with people seeking to register for a census ordered by the Roman emperor. Mary and Joseph found shelter in a stable. And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn (Luke 2:7).

An angel explained Marys pregnancy to Joseph and gave the baby His name. She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins(Matthew 1:21). So it was that Jesus Christ stooped to meet our need.
