Christmas Special Edition: Why Should He Come to The World?

Time flies so fast, doesn't it? I believe some of us may say, "Oh my God, it is already December." In addition to that, we will step into a brand new beginning and a brand new "chapter of life" in 2015. Are you ready for that?

How are you? I hope you are great today!

Yeeeaaayyy! Christmas is coming... Christmas is coming...

It is always my great joy to celebrate Christmas. Why? I do not know. I just fall in love with this sweet atmosphere. Beautiful decorations, lovely songs, splendid Christmas tree, and joyful Christmas service enliven this amazing moment.

I would like to share with you about a story of why God should come to the world as an ordinary human.

There was a man who did not believe Christmas. He was a kind-hearted and faithful man to his family. He ever questioned to his wife,

"I do not understand why extraordinary God wants to be an ordinary human. That does not make any sense for me."

At Christmas eve, his wife and his children attended a Christmas service. The man rejected to accompany them. When his family was in the point of leaving the house, snow started to fall down. A few minutes later, he was shocked by a knock on a window. When he checked it out, he found out a flock of birds fell down helplessly in the midst of cold snow. They were trapped in blizzard and stroke the window when they wanted to find a shelter. 

"I cannot not let them in coldness", the man thought. "But, how can I help them out?" After that, he remembered a stable of his child's pony. "The stable must be able to give warm protection. 
He opened the door widely and turned on the light. However, the birds did not come into the stable. 




"Food may be able to direct them", he assumed. So, he ran into his house, took breadcrumbs, and spread them to the snow in order to make trails to the stable. However, he was very shocked because the birds neglected the breadcrumbs and kept jumping in coldness. 
The man tried to herd them as a dog herds a flock of sheep, yet they spread here and there and went away from the stable.
"They consider me as a strange and frightening man", uttered the man under his breath. "And I cannot come up with any other ways to tell them that they can fully trust me. If I had been a bird just for a few minutes, I might have brought them to a safer place." 
At the same time, a church bell rang and the man knelt down and cried out "Now, I know why extraordinary God wants to become an ordinary human."

This message shows us clearly about the importance of Christmas. God shows up himself through Jesus Christ. Jesus came to this world and became human, so He can help us, sinners. He understands our needs, your feeling, and everything. HE COMES FOR YOU AND ME!
What is our response to His birth? 

Merry Christmas! Have a great holiday!

Jesus Bless You!
