The one who is in us!

The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. ~1 John 4:4

The one who is in us ... the one born of Mary, gentle virgin ... the King who is our peace ... the eternal Word, born of the Father before time began ... who emptied himself for our sake and became man ... the little child: little and yet called the mighty God ... man's creator who has become man ... the Lamb of God ... the light of the world ... the King of heaven and earth, whose Kingdom shall endure forever ... the true vine that brings forth the fruit of life ... the chief shepherd and guardian of our lives ... the Son of the living God ... the Word made flesh and splendor of the Father ... the image of the invisible God ... the first-born of all creatures ... the head of the body, the church ... the glory of the Father, full of grace and truth ... Wonder-Counselor, God-Hero, Father-Forever, Prince of Peace .. oh come, let us adore HIM, now and forever more! AMEN! ALLELUIA!
