when God wants something great done...

i came across this poem very soon after our first son was born.
i remember tears forming in my eyes the first time i read it.
when God wants something great done in this world--He sends you and me......He sent Jesus.



"When God wants something great done in the world,
He doesn't dispatch a legion of avenging angels,
Neither does He call forth a whirlwind nor ignite volcanic fireworks;
No commandeering of troops into battle nor discharging zealous crusaders to holy causes;
He does not orchestrate the burst and boom of thunder nor display His fiery arrows' majesty across the sky to bring His purpose to pass.

When God wants something done in this world...
He sends a baby - then He waits."

- Anita Robinson

Merry Christmas everyone.
