God Incarnate, watercolour card

Day 29 (Wednesday)  

We sing of Jesus,       
     a Jew,       
     born to a woman in poverty       
     in a time of social upheaval       
     and political oppression.
He knew human joy and sorrow.
So filled with the Holy Spirit was he
that in him people experienced the presence of God among them.
We sing praise to God incarnate.  

How have you known “human joy and sorrow”?
How have you experienced the presence of God?
What does “God incarnate” mean?
How would you describe the life, work and meaning of Jesus?

All readings are from A Song of Faith; A Statement of Faith of the United Church of Canada, 2006.
