Was JESUS born at
THE PERFECT hospital?
Did MARY have a slew of
THE PERFECT
nurses and doctors
caring for her?
Did JOSEPH go home to pick up
THE PERFECT
car seat
to bring
THE BABY home?
Oh no,
but the night
was
PERFECT.
Actually,
it was
BEYOND PERFECT
because
PERFECTION was lying in a manager
wearing RAGS.
THE RAGS that swaddled JESUS,
making HIM become one of us.
All because our
PERFECT GOD
LOVES
so
PERFECTLY
that
all HIS WAYS are PERFECT.
So what did GOD do?
HE did what HE said HE was going to do.
And there THE BABY was.
PERFECTLY swaddled under the stars
Oh what a PERFECT MOMENT
that lasts FOREVER.
And it started with
A BABY,
So this BABY would wear all our
RAGS OF IMPERFECTIONS
and call them HIS own,
so that only
HIS PERFECTION
remains behind
covering all those who
BELIEVE.
PERFECT means PERFECT~
"As GOOD as it is possible to be" (Wikipedia)
Read that again~
"As GOOD as it is possible to be".
PERFECT means PERFECT.
THE PERFECT BABY
bringing
PERFECTION into an IMPERFECT world
to
cover ALL of our
IMPERFECT
because of
HIS PERFECT LOVE
that
BIRTHED THE BABY~
"For GOD so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that HE [even] gave His [One and] only begotten SON, so that whoever believes and trusts in HIM [as SAVIOR] shall not perish, but have eternal life"
(John 3:16).
Because PERFECT means PERFECT
and it begins with
PERFECT FORGIVENESS
that means
PERFECT FORGIVENESS~
"as GOOD as it is possible to be"~
“I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions, for my own sake, and remembers your sins no more" (Isaiah 43:25).
THE PERFECT BABY
WRAPPED PERFECTLY
in
tattered
RAGS
in a
NOT-SO-PERFECT smelly stable,
just so
that
HE could PERFECTLY WRAP
one & all
in a PERFECT FOREVER FUTURE!
Because
HIS PERFECT LOVE
covers
ALL of our IMPERFECTIONS.
And there is only
ONE PERFECT WAY~
JUST BELIEVE!
Oh that night was
so SIMPLY PERFECT,
just as GOD said it would be~
"You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger”
(Luke 2:12).
Because there HE was,
WRAPPED in our IMPERFECTIONS,
lying in a manger
with
HIS future PERFECTLY there.
For there were
HIS
"THORNS IN THE STRAW"
(listen to the song below)
