John 1:14

Our Father,

Your Son, the eternal Word became human:

He became as us;

He became with us;

He became for us.

He settled among us;

     He enabled us to see him;

     He revealed you to us.

He is now as us;

But we did not recognise him,

And instead rejected him!

What humility!

What grace!

What condescension!

What mercy!

May it not be so this Christmas.

Instead may we know you! Love you! Worship you!

Amen
