“What child is this?” We sing the words of that Christmas carol every year as if we don’t know what Child “this” is.
Do we?
Is Jesus the sweet baby in the manger “no crying he makes”?
“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.”
(Matt. 25:35-36)
God’s greatest Gift to man didn’t stay in a manger. So let’s not pretend He’s still there.
“Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.”
(Matt. 25:40)
