The Eternal Christmas Plan

For thirty years, God's Christmas plan had culminated into a ministry of Love, Hope even fear and anger. Masses were fed by little, masses were healed, by but a touch of His loving healing hand. Yet through all this, there was still fear, uncertainty, guile and betrayal. Even those chosen to be His Apostles were weary of Him. Even after all He had shown them, taught them. Yet He foresaw it all, lamentations, denial, betrayal. Then He was brought before Pilate a man not wanting to convict nor imprison. Were the Scribes and Priests the ones who really held power? Where was God? Where was His guidance? Where was His Love for His Son? Yes God's eternal plan was present, through man to sacrifice His Son, who was willing, for He understood it must be done, so decreed, Heavenly power fulfilling. To Calvary's Cross, to suffer such loss, to bury in a tomb for three days, whilst resurrection power had begun to tower, stone rolled away from the cave. Among Alleluias from Angels on high, parallel to the Gloria's sung on Christmas Day, where in a manger He lay, God's pure infant Son. Full circle was present, revealed to mankind, Birth to Death from Eternal obedience , from manger to cross, the story unfolds, year to year, age to age, still intense, still Celebrated by those who believe Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again. Let us proclaim the Mystery of Faith........ In the Eternal Christmas Plan........ This is a Collaborative Narrative From Linda Marie ( Sweetheart) Bariana and myself... Many Thanks Sweetheart for this piece... We hope you all enjoy the read. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.....God Bless
