There's no getting around it. The Sovereign Lord descends to earth, shedding His glory, to be the obedient son of two of His creatures, Mary and Joseph. Only infinite greatness can perfectly contract to infinite humility.<br /><br />Whoever authored the letter to the Hebrews on the human side of it, we can't thank God enough for inspiring him. Nobody can hold a candle to the Word of God.Ρωμανός ~ Romanóshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00212143017939554092noreply@blogger.com
