Dear child,
Merry Christmas!
Do you know what it means that God became man?
It means that God loves us so much that he decided to become one of us. He sent his Son, Jesus, to be born as a baby, grow up as a boy, and live as a man. Jesus is both God and human, and He came to show us what God is like and how much He cares for us. He lived with us, felt what we feel, and died for us.
He is the bridge between heaven and earth, and He understands our problems. He is our friend and helper, who offers us new life, and a place in God’s family.
God becoming man is a wonderful and amazing truth that shows us how deep God’s love and kindness are for us. He left heaven, paradise, to become one of his own creation - to rescue us.
One of the coolest things to grasp about Jesus is how different He is from man-made religious figures. Man-made religions always give you a rule book for how to become better, reach a new level, etc. But Jesus said, “Look, it’s hopeless for you. There is no amount of trying harder, doing more, attaining more knowledge, that will make a difference. So I’ll give you my Life, and then you have everything you need.”
Jesus is God in human form, and he is the best example of God’s love for us and the only way we can be close to Him.
Love,
Dad
