More thoughts from “The Valley of Vision.”

We all know that the crib of Christmas would one day lead to the cross of Calvary. For today, a reminder of what Christ did for us on that cross.

Christ was all anguish that I might be all joy,
Cast off that I might be brought in,
Trodden down as an enemy that I might be welcomed as a friend,
Surrendered to hell’s worst that I might attain to heaven’s best,
Stripped that I might be clothed,
Wounded that I might be healed,
Athirst that I might drink,
Tormented that I might be comforted,
Made a shame that I might inherit glory,
Entered darkness that I might have eternal life
As we put away our Christmas decorations and wrap up the manger scene for another year, let our thoughts go to the later event in the life of our Saviour, when He would do so much, not just for the world, but for ME.
