God,
the King of the universe
from His throne in
Heaven,
stepped down; his
resplendent
robe trailing
behind as He exited
His kingdom's
wide open pearly gates
TO BE WITH US, His created,
as a presence at such times
to guide, protect and deliver us.
But why?
God,
the First-Born over creation
the image of the invisible
God,
lived life as we
do, first so we know
He gets us,
but even more so we have
a model
of who He wants us to become.
TO BE AMONG US, His kids,
present, in a skin of His own
to live, breathe and be like us.
But why?
God,
the Holiest of all holies,
Who knew not a single
sin,
put upon His bared
shoulders
the mantle
of all the world's evil
to feel
full it's sting upon His fair back,
FOR US, to take our place
sacrificially, to suffer and die,
in order for our sins to be forgiven.
But why?
God,
the Spirit of the Christ,
the Comforter, the
Advocate,
the Intercessor,
the Strengthener,
the Father
will send in My Holy Name,
will
indwell our inner spirit, who will live
IN US, within each believer
spiritually, as our counselor
to help and lead us back home.
But why?
Why?
Does it matter why?
Does it really matter?
Fact is, He didn't and doesn't
just tell us,
He showed and shows
us.
For when we least deserved
and deserve
it,
He loved and loves us
the most.
All we have to do is
love Him back
the most we can.
He wants nothing more
or less, in return.
