Jesus Christ is Creator and King. This world has suffered long in decay and pain because we have rebelled against him. The great joy of Christmas is that the King has come—not only to save sinners, but to reclaim his world and rule it with perfect righteousness and steadfast love. He brings blessing where there was curse, and joy where there was sorrow. Let us open our hearts to his Lordship, lift up our voice in praise, and labor to make him known as we bring his goodness into this world, and eagerly await for the day when every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
