No effort of scientific advancements can ever approach or see the abode of God or glimpse the divine, for He lives in a place that is unapproachable. The mercy He had upon mankind made Him send His beloved Son in the form of a human being—understandable, approachable, and communicable to mankind. The rarest moment in human history that the world has ever witnessed is the arrival and living of God’s glorious Son amidst human beings. Apostle John got enthralled at witnessing the glimpse of His glory, and appreciates his experience in words that are beyond our comprehension: “The Word became a human being and, full of grace and truth, lived among us. We saw his glory, the glory which he received as the Father’s only Son” (Jn 1:14). May we praise God for giving mankind an opportunity to approach and witness the glory He shared with His Son, and adore Him in this blessed season.

Abba, thank You so much for sending Your Son among human beings on earth. Let Your Spirit make us wonder and realize this mysterious encounter we have been privileged with, in Jesus’ Most Wonderful Name, Amen.
