Presence: The Arrivalਨਮੂਨਾ

The Arrival_4 : Love in Human Form

“The Word became flesh.” These four words are the heartbeat of Advent. God did not send an idea or a distant blessing—He came Himself. Love put on skin and moved into our world.

Jesus’ arrival was both miraculous and humble: heaven’s glory wrapped in human frailty. Advent invites us to wake up to the wonder of this love—real, tangible, embodied, close.

Read this poem as a celebration of the God who draws near.

Poem: Love Has Come Again — Sue Heatherington

Love has come,

the skies ablaze

to herald the one

born far from home

in a hostile world.

The wait is over

the great revealing

in tiny form,

the gift of God

to a hurting world.

Awake with joy,

announce with laughter

the peace of God

Immanuel.

Love has come

O beautiful dawn,

hope in human

frailty the glory of God

in servant form.

Sing out with joy,

declare the wonder

of heaven come down

Immanuel.

Love has come.

Yes, love has come again.

Love has come.

Yes, love has come again.
