He drops to his knees in reverence. The one most people talk about at Christmas time worships the One Christmas truly represents. Santa Claus pays homage to the Christ Child.
It’s my favorite Christmas decoration. The Truth resonates from this small figurine. Because it speaks volumes, I leave it out all year. The kneeling Santa epitomizes the importance of baby Jesus.
He is the reason for the season, this small babe. Yet the big business of secular Christmas bombards us. Our commercial society continuously tempts us with advertisements of things. Billboards relentlessly remind us of stuff. Store owners regularly rearrange their window displays with the newest trends.
It all means nothing when confronted by the newborn King. We drop to our knees before His powerful peace. Our hearts move toward compassion as we accept His gracious forgiveness. The extreme love of a Sovereign God humble enough to become one of us is extraordinary. We creatures halt our hurried pace and bow before our Creator God.
In the stillness all else pales into insignificance before an Almighty God. His glory fills the air. We’re humbled beyond belief because of Who He is.
Worship with me. Bow before the newborn King, the One born to save. He is our loving Heavenly Father, providing peace that passes all understanding. Will you choose to honor Him?
It's your choice though one day every knee will bow, freely or forced. One day every knee all over the world will bow before the Maker and Redeemer of all the earth. He is God. Choose now to worship Him, the King of kings. He came to earth for you. Receive His supreme love.
For with God nothing [is or ever] shall be impossible.” Then Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; may it be done to me according to your word.” And the angel left her. Luke 1:37-38 (AMP)
Since we have a Kingdom nothing can destroy, let us please God by serving him with thankful hearts and with holy fear and awe. Hebrews 12:28 (TLB)
It is written: “‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.’” Romans 14:11 (NIV)
