Here, and now

'There within a stable, the baby drew a breath.
There began a life that put an end to death.
And all the frozen stillness, mighty voices heard:
God is here among you! Human is the Word!'
---Bob Franke

Today God takes on flesh and becomes Emmanuel, 'God with us'. The Word, the One that spoke the world into being, takes on the cares, labors, sorrows of the common folk and walks for a while among us. At that time, in that place.
Here, and now.
