Behind the scenes that show us a tiny infant in Mary’s arms, there is a bigger story happening in the realm of heaven. There are HUGE implications of what happened when Jesus came. What is Christmas like from a heavenly perspective, not just an earthly one? It’s not just about what happened in the inn that night, but what it means for the universe for eternity.

By his wounds we are healed. The Big Picture Plan was for Jesus to come and heal all our pain. And this is good news for all of us, because we have so much grief to heal.
