Isaiah's image of a perfect king being born is so incredibly description of the character of Christ: Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Might, Knowledge, Fear of the LORD. All this packaged in the form of a baby, sent to us on Christmas Day (or at least that's when we celebrate it).
Relient K wrote a really beautiful song about Christ's birth called, "I Celebrate the Day." Here is a portion of the lyrics:
And the first time that You opened Your eyes,
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
And the first breath that left Your lips,
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
And I, I celebrate the day
That You were born to die
So I could one day pray for You to save my life
Pray for You to save my life
Pray for You to save my life
I hope your Christmas was special like mine! Merry Christmas!
