...i like Christmas...
...i like it a lot...
...within the next week, i'll be enjoying Christmas Eve, Day and 2nd Christmas (26th)...
...here's a couple thoughts from something i put together recently...
„Denn uns wurde ein Kind geboren, uns wurde ein Sohn geschenkt.“
"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given."
Wer ist dieses Kind?
Who is this child?
Warum ist dieses Kind uns geschenkt?
Why is this child given to us?
Warum ist dieses Kind so wichtig?
Why is this child so important?
Ein kleines Kind für dich, für uns, für alle?
A small child for you, for us, for everyone?
Warum?
Why?
Wer ist dieses Kind?
Who is this child?
„Denn uns wurde ein Kind geboren, uns wurde ein Sohn geschenkt. Auf seinen Shultern ruht die Herrschaft. Er heißt: wunderbarer Ratgeber, starker Gott, ewiger Vater, Friedensfürst.“
"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
Dieses Kind ist: der Erste und der Letzte, Allmächtige, Diener, Licht der Welt, Wahrheit, unser Frieden, Retter, König der Könige, Helfer, Meister, Bruder, Treue und Wahrhaftige, Zuflucht, Freund, Leben und mehr...
This child is: the First and the Last, Almighty, Servant, Light of the World, Truth, our Peace, Savior, King of Kings, Helper, Teacher, Brother, Faithful and True, Refuge, Friend, Life and more...
Dieses Kind wurde uns geboren; uns wurde dieser Sohn geschenkt.
This child was born for us; this son was given to us.
Wie reagieren wir auf dieses Geschenk, auf diese Realität?
How do we react
Für mich ist dieses Kind: Treue und Wahrhaftige, Helfer, starker Gott, Freund, und viel mehr...
For me, this child is: Faithful and True, Helper, Mighty God, Friend, und much more...
Wer ist dieses Kind für dich?
Who is this child for you?
...although, this was only small glimpse of who this little 7-pound mushy vulnerable bag of innocent flesh was...
