Christmas Greetings!
There is a beautiful quote that I wanted to share with you, which shares the sacrificial nature of the incarnation of Christ. We often only think of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, but His sacrificial giving started years before the cross!
“The Life came down, that He might be slain; the Bread came down, that He might hunger; the Way came down, that He might be wearied in the way; the Fountain came down, that He might thirst.” – Augustine of Hippo
The Bible tells us in Isaiah 7:14 (NKJV) 14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.
