He was created of a mother who he created! He was carried by hands he formed! He cried in the manger in wordless infancy! He, the Word without whom all human eloquence is mute. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, Regins in Numidin, Roman North Africa (354-430 A.D.) Commentary: So what is Saint Augustine saying here? Baby Jesus has no beginning and no end! Jesus is different from every other baby born on planet earth! The Word became flesh! The author of creation enters into a woman through the womb of a woman named Mary into his own creation! The Divine God incarnated into flesh to redeem man from the sin of his flesh! Compared to ourselves mere human flesh to him we are humbled and muted before our King! The only thing left to do along with the shepherds and the wise men from the East is to praise him! Join the chorus of millions of angels around his throne in heaven and praise him! Merry Christmas!

So what does noel mean? It is a French word that means birthday! So it is a Christmas carol about Jesus first birthday! We all have a first birthday but Jesus birth was very different! First Jesus existed eternally with the Father before he came to earth! He is the only Son of God! He is man yet God! Divine! His mission some 2000 years ago was to sacrifice himself to deliver us from sin! The heavens and the scriptures both old and new testaments announced his first coming along with his second coming! From the manger to the Cross to the resurrection from the dead to his ascension back to heaven to his return back to earth at his second coming! Jesus deserves celebration! When Jesus came into my life I was born again! A new creature in Christ old things passed away! Is Christmas old stuff to you? Then you have not been born again! The awe and the wonder of his love just never ceases when Christ enters into you! If ever there is a time to embrace the Savior it is right now! Merry Christmas! James & Hamsa Sasse.
