On December 1, we received a wonderful Christmas gift—our first
grandchild. I was blessed to visit the family for eight great days, including
lots of time loving on her. Because of her birth’s proximity to Christmas, I
often thought of the baby in the manger when I held her, and my mind was blown
away by the truth of the incarnation.
How can God become a baby? How could he remain God and yet
be totally dependent and helpless? How did Jesus grow in wisdom and knowledge
like other children when he is the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the
end? How can the Creator be enclosed in a created body?
