Reflection #9

In both the movie and my carol, and also in the bible, Jesus is described as a humble, holy figure who has came to earth to save humans from their sins.

The
First Noel (Verse 4):

This
star drew nigh to the northwest

O'er
Bethlehem it took its rest

And there it did both Pause and
stay

  
The verse shown here has the lyrics that represents the star that shined Jesus Christ when he was born. This star is known to have brought the three wise men to Jesus at the day of his birth.
     In this story, Mary plays a very important part. She is the mother of Jesus yet she was a virgin.  That, in itself, is a miracle.  Joseph was important to the story of the birth of Jesus because he was the father of Jesus.  He was crucial in helping Mary to travel all the way to Bethlehem, where Jesus was born.  The shepherds were important in witnessing the birth of Jesus because  they represented the lowest people of the social ladder.  The Persian astrologers were important in the birth of Jesus because they represented the highest of the social ladder.  Since they all bowed down to Jesus, they realized his greatness, which represented that someday, all people, rich and poor, would bow down to God.
   God coming to Earth as a baby is definitely a  humbling experience. Instead of coming to us humans as an omnipotent God, he came to us as a baby, and chose to learn the human life from the beginning form of human life.

Right
o'er the place where Jesus lay.
