Unto You, Part 19: Unto Us Came God’s Perfect Gift
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow
Jesus truly is God’s gift too wonderful for words! To think upon Jesus opens the door to a vast chamber of thoughts that are praiseworthy. There is not a single thought about Jesus that will bring you regret or embarrassment, and there is not a single remembrance that will bring you shame. There is nothing in His character that brings disappointment, and there is nothing in His nature that brings hurt. Think about His ministry and you find a servant. Think about His wonders and you see the mighty hand of God. Think about His blessings and you discover His compassion. Think about His tenderness and you see His Shepherd’s heart.
Think about Jesus’ names and your thoughts will lead your heart into ceaseless praise. He is called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, and The Prince of Peace. He is our Banner, Rock, Foundation, High Priest, Redeemer, Deliverer, Healer, Saviour, King, Lord, and Master. He is the Bread of Life, The Way, The Truth, The Word, The Dayspring, and The Bright and Morning Star. He is the Seed of David, The Lion of Judah, Messiah, The Alpha and Omega—The Lord of all.

For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6 NLT).
