Merry Christmas! O Come, Let Us Adore Him!

I was glad when they said to me,
"Let us go to the house of the LORD!" (Psalm 122:1; ESV)

I can honestly say, I really enjoyed spending Christmas with my extended family (i.e., the body of Christ).

I might not get a lot of positive feedback from the "Amen Corner," but I wouldn't be against having Christmas on Sunday every year. You get the best of both worlds ... family, gifts, AND fellowship with the brethren & corporate worship of the incarnate Christ.

This morning at church we sang "O Come, Let Us Adore Him."

We came ... and we did.

O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

For He alone is worthy, For He alone is worthy,
For He alone is worthy, Christ the Lord.

Christmas Thought on the Incarnation of Christ:

The Maker of man became man that He, Ruler of the stars, might be nourished at the breast; that He, the Bread, might be hungry; that He, the Fountain, might thirst; that He, the Light, might sleep; that He, the Way, might be wearied by the journey; that He, the Truth, might be accused by false witnesses; that He, the Judge of the living and the dead, might be brought to trial by a mortal judge; that He, Justice, might be condemned by the unjust; that He, Discipline, might be scourged with whips; that He, the Foundation, might be suspended upon a cross; that Courage might be weakened; that Security might be wounded; that Life might die. –Saint Augustine
