Uncle Luther's Porch

The Word became flesh.
Human.

The Word didn’t become a committee. He didn’t become a program. The Word didn’t become a set of rules or a religion. The Word did not confine Himself to a mission statement or a policy. The Word was more than a book. The Word didn’t become inspiration or accountability. The Word did not become a cause. The Word became flesh.

He became flesh to pour compassion upon weak flesh. He became flesh because flesh can be wounded and scarred. Flesh can have blemishes and flesh can hurt. The Word came as a human because humanity needed a real hand and a flesh and blood savior.
