b'A Child Is Born Isa 9:6\\xa0 #RTTBROS #Nightlight\\xa0\\n\\n"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." (Isaiah 9:6 KJV)\\n\\nFrom Jeni Perkins\\xa0\\n\\n"I love this portrayal of the Nativity. Before the shepherds come rushing in jabbering about an angel choir, before ANYONE shows up with gifts, there\\u2019s just Mary, exhausted from child birth, and Joseph, overwhelmed by the task in front of him, and the baby, the baby that changes everything. The quiet beauty of THIS moment stirs my heart every time I look at it.\\xa0\\n\\nI love the pomp and fanfare of Christmas (and the chaos of family gatherings). I really do! But I cherish the quiet moments to stop and gaze at the baby. I too am exhausted and overwhelmed, and He still changes everything."\\n\\nAs we draw nearer to Christmas, let us pause to reflect on the wonder of Jesus\' birth. This verse from Isaiah prophesies the coming of Christ centuries before his arrival. Jesus came as a helpless babe, yet he is the almighty God in the flesh. He came to establish his reign of perfect peace and justice. At Christmas we celebrate how Jesus came to redeem us and restore our relationship with God. Just as the Israelites awaited their prophesied Messiah, we too must prepare our hearts to receive Christ anew this Christmas season.\\n\\nAs Charles Spurgeon said, "Out of the ivory palaces, into a world of woe, came the Lord Jesus, to be born of a peasant woman, in the smallest village of Judah; he lived to minister, to suffer, to die." Christ left behind his glorious home in heaven out of love for us. Though he is the mighty King, he was willing to be born to humble means and suffer greatly so that we could be reconciled to God.\\n\\nOur Podcast, Blog and YouTube Links\\n\\nhttps://linktr.ee/rttbros\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.'
