A Little Child

And a little child shall lead them…

A little child born in the night,

A little child without wealth and privilege,

A little child birthed in straw and danger,

A little child from an unexpected place,

Arriving in an unexpected way.

A little child for the small people,

A little child born far from home,

A little child rather than a mighty warrior,

A little child to soften our hearts and open our minds.

A little child to upend our expectations,

A little child with a big heart,

A little child who will one day rule forever,

A little child who will grow up

And give everything for this battered world,

A little child for those who long for hope,

A little child called Jesus.

 

(Isaiah 11 v 1-10)
