The Eternity Before Christmas - John 1:1 - 2.
The glory of Christmas is that it is not the beginning of Christ. It is a becoming. Jesus was not created. Jesus came. Jesus existed before the incarnation and before creation because of his divinity. And Jesus is before, and better than, anything in this created world.
Father in heaven, may your Son assume his rightful place in our hearts this Advent. At this most material time of the year in our materialistic society, your Son’s pre-existence reminds us of his preciousness over every party and present, over all the trees and trimmings. He is before, and better than, anything in this created world. Cause our hearts to swell in this season at the gift of the person of Christ as our greatest treasure. In his precious name, we pray. Amen.
