God
is in control! Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Long before it happened,
God had it planned (1-7; Micah 5:2-3). As we approach Christ's Return,
God still has His plan. He is still in control. The birth of Christ is
not merely an event from the past. It is also a message for the future.
We look back so that we can move forward. We are fearful about many
things. ‘What's the world coming to?’, we ask. God turns our question on
its head: ‘Christ is coming to the world’. From His first coming, we
look on to His Second Coming - He ‘will come to all the people’(10):
‘every eye will see Him’(Revelation 1:7). His Return invites us to ask
another question: ‘when the Son of man comes, will He find faith on
earth?’(18:8). For you, is it still ‘before Christ’? Let the ‘new age’
begin: Let Christ be ‘born this day’(11) - in your heart!
