This Sunday, Christmas Day, we will go to the Christmas story text in Luke 2:1-20. In this very familiar passage I have to ask this question: Why? Why such a humble birth? To such lowly insignificant people? Besides God’s reasons that people wouldn’t hear, listen or notice; I believe there are lessons here in this passage on humility. Lessons that show us Jesus, even being God’s Son, would lay in a humble feeding trough in an insignificant town, Bethlehem; surrounded by humble, average, nobody’s who loved God. The incarnation of Jesus Christ, happening exactly as God predicted, and such a famous, well-known story! What are the lessons for you?
