HE CAME DOWN!

He came down, for me, for you! Can you, for a minute, fathom what this means? Of course you can't, so let me help you with this awesome analogous truism. Just imagine, if you, a creature, ascended all the way down the ladder of creature-hood, from a human to become a worm. This would be a colossal descent of unimaginable proportions if you became a worm. Yet, this is no where close, to the degradation Jesus Christ took upon Himself, during His Earthly sojourn. You see, if you transformed all the way from human to worm, you would still be transforming from one created species, to another created species. Jesus superseded this when He, as Creator, lowered Himself to become a Creature. Rather than going from one creature to another, Christ went from Creator to Creature. This could never be measured from a human stand-point. This is a gap of unparalleled humility, far beyond the greatest degradation any human could ever know. If people could truly understand what Christ has done for them, the whole world would repent in ashes. The sad thing is, some people are not interested in what Christ has done on their behalf. One Lay's Potato Chip can never satisfy. One cigarette, one woman, one car, one hundred dollars, one drink to a thirty soul, can never, ever, satisfy. But one drink of the water that comes from Christ can appease the vilest heart. One drink satisfies, one drink gives the assurance of a salvation that all of us long for so deeply. He came down, for me and you, as a servant, but He is A King! He orders the planets, and the galaxies, yet He cares to know your name. He has a deeper more radiant life for you, than you could ever imagine. But it will take living, dying, and being resurrected, to fully imagine this culmination that God planned when He planned that you be born. You weren't asked to be born in this world of hate, greed, nuclear weapons, war, and frivolity. But He hasn't left you here, to fend for yourself. You are going to meet the Man that descended lower than a worm. That is what you are without Him, less than a worm! But descending to this lowest level didn't worry a Man who knew who He was. And all the things that happen to you should not destroy who you really are either. You are His, and don't fail in studying what that means. The stakes could never be higher my fellow Christian!
