On which I bet my life,
For which I contend and press:
Once upon a time…
There was a life transforming,
paradigm shattering event:*
The….
Ideal became real.
Invisible became visible.
Abstract became particular.
Eternal became touchable.
Extraordinary became ordinary.
God became human,
Breaking into history.
Jesus.
The Forevermore.
...When I say “Merry Christmas”, I mean “may you know in your inner being and take joy in what God has done in history to get you to know him personally.”*
*From T. Keller's sermon "The Meaning of Christmas"
