The Miracle We Miss

So much about the Christmas account is miraculous and supernatural that it gets hard to keep track of every thing. We are all familiar with the miracle of the virgin birth, the divine communication with Joseph through dreams, the angelic appearance to the shepherds and the miracle of the Christmas star. However, there is one miracle that we might have overlooked.

Although it is not typically the book of the Bible in which you expect to find information pertaining to Christmas, Colossians 2:9 speaks about a miraculous truth. We’ve heard the term “incarnation” in relationship to Christmas. God became human in order to be with us in our human condition. It is a uniquely Christian concept and one of the things that sets Jesus apart from all others.
