God The Baby Donovan Ward

The incarnation of the Son of God is one of the greatest of the mysteries of God ever to be revealed. Nothing in the whole universe was, is, and shall be as astonishing as God, Yahweh, the Almighty God Himself becoming a man. The incarnation was the preparation for His brutal and ignominious death. He died the death that I should have died. He died the death to conquer death itself. He could have entered into this world as a fully grown man, but chose to identify with us in our very nature, flesh and blood, through human reproduction, yet without sin. He chose a woman named Mary to carry out His greatest creative act ever in her womb as He created a human nature and added it to His divine nature, resulting in two natures united in one person. God himself grew for nine months in her womb. His birth and growth were natural, but nonetheless mystifying. How could God become a man, many asked as their thinking became overwhelmingly exhausted by the depth of its mystery. God becoming a baby, helpless, speechless and totally dependent on His mother, yet in its mystery, He was the very One who gave and sustained Mary into being as she provided for His mysterious being, as God the baby. As you read this book, the mystery of the incarnation of God the baby is not for you to understand but for you to see what God (The Father) had done for you to become like the very One (His Son) who became a baby for you.
