Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him, nor earth sustain;
Heaven and earth shall flee away when He comes to reign.
In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.
Christina Rosetti
Our God is so great that it doesn't belittle him to become a tiny baby.
Our God is so powerful that it doesn't weaken him to be totally dependent on a mother.
Our God is so holy and separate from sinners that it doesn't defile him to take on our nature.
Our God is so utterly free and unrestrained that it does not frustrate him to lie helpless in a manger.
Our God is so sovereign over time that it does not test his patience to learn how to talk and walk.
Our God is so glorious that it does not diminish him to be unknown and tucked away in a stable.
Our God is so transcendent that it takes nothing from him fully to enter in to humanity.
Our God is Jesus Christ, and no other.
