Jesus, the perfect Man
He left heaven to become Man. Laid in a manger after his birth, He was a small child dependent on Mary, His mother. He was obedient to His parents, worked for His living, but never had an own home here and lived in poverty (cf. 2 Corinthians 8. 9).

He went from one place to another, easing physical or moral suffering, healing the sick, comforting the unfortunate and outcasts. He never heeded His hunger, thirst or fatigue.

He was misunderstood and despised even by His friends and family, denied and forsaken by those closest to Him and betrayed by one of them.

Though innocent, He was arrested, insulted, scourged, condemned and crucified. During this time He asked His Father to forgive those who were set against Him.

In dying to save us, He, who had never sinned, was "made sin for us" (2 Corinthians 5:21). He knew in advance all that would happen to Him (cf. John 18:4), but He willingly went that pathway of suffering to the cross for the honour of God His Father and out of love toward us.

After His resurrection He appeared to His own to strengthen their newborn faith. Having ascended to heaven to be with the Father, He sent the Holy Spirit to earth to guide us.

Now in heaven He awaits the time to receive His own to be with Him. And He constantly attends to their daily needs. Let us gratefully remember all that He undertook for us!
