It’s easy to become so familiar with a passage like this that we lose the immensity of what is taking place. In this passage Luke records that the one who is beyond time is born into human history, that the creator of all thing’s has stepped into His creation. And what makes this even more startling is the setting. Jesus, God become flesh, enters time and space in anonymity and vulnerability. He’s born to a teenage mom and laid in a trough used to feed animals. The entrance into human history does not take place in the halls of power, in the places of prestige and privilege, instead God appears in the most humble and lowly way imaginable. And yet, a birth noted by no one of note at the time, becomes the moment by which all history will end up being divided. Christmas matters because Christ has come and that changes everything.
