Over 2,000 years ago, our Lord and Savior was humbly born in a manger. The plan from the beginning was for Jesus to be born of a virgin, and go on to die on a cross as a sacrifice for the world’s sins. The Prince Of Peace born in a manger, for you and me.

Ethan’s church, Wooster Naz, sing this song from We The Kingdom during worship every Christmas. It reminds Ethan of the verse in Luke 2 when an angel of the Lord appeared to some shepherds in a field nearby where Jesus was born.

Luke 2:13-14 NIV:

13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,

14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven,
    and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

Ethan loves worshipping Jesus for who He is and for coming down so humbly, being born in a manger, and bringing peace on earth to those who His favor rests upon. That’s us who believe, follow, and have Jesus as our Lord and Savior!

Remember why Jesus came on earth. To go to the cross, be crucified, and be the ultimate sacrifice for our sins! His plans are so good for us!
