THE - IRONY - OF - GOD - THE - KING

No other has ever been born a king - in all time - except 
The Son of God - He was not born a prince - He was born a 
King - of Royal blood - and lineage - and
Destiny.

He was all Man - and yet all God in human form - utterly 
Amazing - an irony we may never comprehend - but - without
A doubt - it is the truth - from time beginning to its end - the 
Alpha and Omega - God and King and 
Friend .

The new-born baby King - had no great palace in which to 
Welcome Him - No bowing or scraping to His needs - only 
The awe and wonder of the poorest of the poor - to proclaim 
His coming to the earth - and 
Herald Him .

And - who would listen then - to such as these ? - or would
Go on proclaiming the amazing deeds - of this One - who is 
Totally pure and without sin ? - and yet - who touched the 
Lepers - the desparate - the nobodies - the unclean - to 
Make them whole - and 
Well again .

The One who was mocked as a king - He truly was a King - 
Yet only wore a bloodied crown - to show His Majesty - but that
Same King - who was born to be served - in all reality - 
Himself became a servant - in 
Low humilty .

I will tell of ...

This same King - who drank at weddings - and made a 
Widow happy at a funeral - and who fasted at a well with one 
Of ill repute - Who also walked on water - and slept  soundly
Through a raging storm - and who washed His followers 
Dusty - smelly feet.

With just a tiny lunch - He fed the thousands - all who came -
To hear the words of hope and comfort - of this King - who laid
Aside His sceptre and His glorious crown - to heal the 
Broken hearted - the sick and poor - and blind
And Lame .

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Jesus - the KING of Kings - and LORD of Lords tells us to go
and do likewise - 

Heal the sick - Feed the hungry - Share the Good News of the 
Gospel with everyone - and make Disciples of all men - 
baptizing them in the name of the Father - Son - and Holy
Spirit.   Matthew 28 V 19 - 20

And He would be with us 'til the end of time ..

what a Saviour !

what a KING !

God bless you all
