God became a baby, He entered a world of problems and heartaches.
"The word because human and lived here on earth among us. He was full of infailing love and faithfulness" (John 1:14 NLT)
The operative word of the verse is among us. He lived among us. He donned the costliest of robes: a human body. He made a throne out of a manger and royal court out of some cows. He took a common name-Jesus-and made it holy. He took a common people and made them the same. He could have lived over us or away from us. But he didn't. He lived among us.
He became a friend of the sinner and brother of the poor.
