Thinking about after Christmas... it is like all the excitement about the birth of Christ is over. Things get back down to a regular pace. But did it for Joseph and Mary? Doubtful. I doubt their lives would ever be the same. When we give birth to our children.... our lives are changed forever, too. Probably not as drastic as theirs!
We gave birth in a warm, sterile hospital room. Mary gave birth in a nasty, dark stable or cave.
We put our infant in their new carseat and drove them to a nice new nursery. Mary did not.
We had the best medicines, doctors, cameras, and family around! Mary did not.
The common thread to us and Mary... we love our baby as much as Mary. And our lives were changed, too.
I love this song and wanted to post it here.
A Baby Changes Everything lyrics
Songwriters: Nichols, James Timothy; Wiseman, Craig Michael; Wiseman, Kim;
Teenage girl, much too young
Unprepared for what's to come
A baby changes everything
Not a ring on her hand
All her dreams and all her plans
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
The man she loves she's never touched
How will she keep his trust?
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
And she cries!
Ooh, she cries
Ooh, oh
She has to leave, go far away
Heaven knows she can't stay
A baby changes everything
She can feel it's coming soon
There's no place, there's no room
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
And she cries!
And she cries!
Oh, she cries
Shepherds all gather 'round
Up above the star shines down
A baby changes everything
Choir of angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
Everything, everything, everything
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
My whole life has turned around
I was lost but now I'm found
A baby changes everything, yeah
A baby changes everything
