We tend to think of Jesus’ birth as
supernatural, and the birth of John the Baptist as natural. It should be
noted that it’s in connection with John’s birth that the angel of the
Lord says that “nothing is impossible with God” (Luke 1:37). John wasn’t
born of a virgin - but his birth did have a supernatural dimension. In
both births - Jesus and John, God was at work. He was carrying forward
His plan of salvation.We tend to think of Jesus’ birth as

God's Word is "a lamp to our feet and a light to our path." He has "wondrous things" to teach us as we pray "Open my eyes that I may see" (Psalm 119:105, 18, 11). "May God's blessing surround you each day, as you trust Him and walk in His way. May His presence within guard and keep you from sin, go in peace, go in joy, go in love." "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your Name give glory, because of Your mercy and Your truth" (Psalm 115:1).
