The Son Is Given
December 19, 2013
Read: Luke 1:26-33
One of my favorite portions of Handels Messiah is the joyous movement For unto us a Child is born, from the first part of the oratorio. I especially love how the chorus rises to the phrase, Unto us a Son is given. Those words, of course, are taken from Isaiah 9:6, For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given. Handels majestic music soars with adoration for the Son who came to us in human flesh that first Christmas.
The New Testament clarifies even further who this Son is. In Luke 1, the angelic messenger appeared to Mary and identified the Christ-child in four ways. He would be the son of Mary, making Him fully human (1:31). He would be the Son of the Highest, which made Him fully divine (1:32). He would also be the Son of David, giving Him royal lineage (1:32). And He would bear the title of Son of God (1:35), giving Him equality with the Father in all things. All of the roles the Messiah was called to fill are made possible in these distinct expressions of His Sonship.
As we worship Him this Christmas, may our celebrations be filled with joy and wonder at the fullness of what it means. Our heavenly Father has given us His perfect, sufficient Son. O come, let us adore Him!
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning,
Jesus, to Thee be all glory given;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing;
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord. Wade
Gods love became incarnate at Bethlehem.

We are supposed to get some snow tonight.
I had to wear my coat all day in the office. They haven't figured out the heat thing yet.
Stay warm!!
