Oh baby

Happy Wednesday Friends!

Last night I went to a surprise baby shower for a beautiful friend! She is soon going to have a baby boy named Vandis aka "Van." :) The night was filled with love, food, games, and laughter! 

Here is the mommy! I am so happy for her! 

I LOVE babies. 

I especially love shopping for baby clothes. Seriously, it could be a hobby. 

While I was thinking about babies I was reminded that Jesus came to earth as a baby. He was literally inside of Mary's tummy. 

This kinda blows my mind. 

The KING OF KINGS and CREATOR OF THE WORLD chose to come as a crying, pooping, hungry little baby because He wanted to save YOU from death. 

Wow. Do we realize how amazing this is? 

Jesus, 

"Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness."
Philippians 2:6-7

"The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
Matthew 20:28

I challenge you to just think about this today. Jesus (who deserves everything) gave up everything to save us (who deserve nothing). 

Are we living in response to this?
