The Incarnation
The most famous portion of Michelangelo’s masterpiece on the Sistine Chapel ceiling is called The Creation of Adam. Adam reclines on a rock, while God, rushing by in the clouds, extends His creative finger toward the first man. Adam reaches out toward God and their outstretched fingers almost meet—but they do not touch.
Contrast this image with the beauty of the incarnation: God becoming flesh so that He might not only be close to His creation, but also live as one of us, fully human and fully divine. The word “incarnation” may sound like a formal theological word, but it’s really a word that represents incredible intimacy.
Jesus became a baby, then a child, then an adolescent, and then a grown man—so that He could intimately relate to us in every way. There is no sacrifice that can compare with His.
Activity: Spend some time alone in nature. Contemplate how Jesus’ earthly life enables Him to relate to you right where you are.

Par šo plānu
Kādā klusā naktī pirms 2000 gadiem eņģelis atnesa vēsti par Glābēja dzimšanu grupai ganu, kas ganīja savus lopus. Dzirdot šo vēsti, šie gani pameta visu, lai dotos Betlēmes pilsētā meklēt bērnu silītē. Arī pēc visiem šiem daudzajiem gadiem aicinājums nav mainījies. Pievienojies Dr. Čārlzam Stenlijam, ļaujot viņam palīdzēt tev tuvoties Glābējam un šajā periodā iedrošināt tevi rast laiku, lai atpūstos Tēva mīlestībā.
