It is the time where Jesus enters into history in a new, concrete way. But, he doesn't really do anything for a while.
It is the beginning of a transition for the Holy Spirit, moving from being an occasional helper to a constant companion. But, that transition is still years away.
It is the first step in God's sacrifice for us. He alone knew the grand plan of redemption at this point. He alone knew what this baby would become, what he would go through, what he would sacrifice. It was the beginning of 30+ years of agony because of that knowledge.
What is is beginning in your life this Christmas?
