Incarnation

God loved, but he did not really understand love.

The powerful, even the Greatest Power,
Can never grasp the weakness of the weak
Until they become weak.


Until the Lord of Heaven and Earth
Creator of Worlds and Words
Whose every Command was carried out
Became a single, helpless infant
He never truly understood weakness.


Before that moment, he felt that command would rule.
Until he was in a place where command was meaningless.


He could command his body
He could create with his mind
He could form atoms and call up mountains
But he could not control his arm without practice.


It would take months before he could walk.
Years before a single word was clear enough to be understood without interpreted.


It was not until the weakness of a body
Limited the Supreme of Supremes


That the kingdom truly belonged to the poor.


At that moment, Love wasn’t just an idea
It was reality.
