6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; ~ Isaiah 9:6a
Christmas is all about giving, but it’s also about receiving. There was a father who gave his son the thing he most desired, but the son, being shortsighted, did not receive the gift and thus took away the father’s privilege to give the one thing to his son that he most desired.
Thus, the Christmas message can be summed up in these words:
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given;
That is the Christmas message. Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given. It always comes back to that word and its various forms:
- Give
- Given
- Has given
- Will give
- Gave
Our God is a loving and giving God, who gave the most valuable possession He had, His Son Jesus. He is a kind and compassionate God. He delights in blessing His children with good things because He is a good, good Father, but it’s up to us to accept His good, good gift.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Enjoy His Good Gift.
