"And He will be called . . . Mighty God
(Isa. 9:6)
His Mighty Hand
His holy fingers formed the bough
Where grew the thorns that crowned His brow.
The nails that pierced the hands were mined
In secret places He designed.
He made the forests whence there sprung
The tree on which His holy body hung.
He died upon a cross of wood
He made the hill upon which it stood.
The sun which hid from Him its face
By His decree was poised in space.
The sky which darkened o'er His head
By Him above the earth was spread.
The spear that spilt His precious blood
Was tempered in the fires of God.
The grave in which His form was laid
Was hewn in rocks His hands had made.

Jesus -- There's just something about that name!
He was eternally existent -- "In the beginning was the Word."
He had fellowship with God -- "and the Word was with God."
He was God -- "and the Word was God."
. . . And "Through Him all things were made;
without Him nothing was made that has been made"
(John 1:3)
*** Jesus - An Everlasting Love ***
Jesus - An everlasting love revealed.
O Love, revealed on earth in Christ
In blindness once I sacrificed
Thy gifts for dross; I could not see
But Jesus brings me sight of Thee.
O Love, invisible before,
I see Thee now, desire Thee more;
When Jesus speaks, Thy word is clear;
I search His face and find Thee near.

Prayer:
Eternal Christ, my imagination and mind reel at the thought of Your
infinite love for you are pure love. Enable me to be a more worthy heir to Your promises.
Amen
"All the treasures of wisdom and knowledge"
declares Apostle Paul, "are hid in Christ."
(Col. 2:3)
Blessings to all!
