Hey there, Figs — welcome to Week 2 of our special 4-week Advent series, He Came for Me.This series was born from Brandon’s original song From Glory to a Stable, written over a decade ago.What started as a melody he carried in his heart has become a way for us to slow down and remember the unexpected, upside-down way Jesus came for us.
Today, Rose reads her Week 2 devotional, He Came Low — The King Who Chose the Manger, inviting us to consider the humility of Christ’s arrival.The God who deserved a throne chose a feeding trough.The King who commands heaven wrapped Himself in weakness.His first breath on earth wasn’t taken in a palace but in a place no one would have chosen.
As you listen, breathe deep and let this truth settle in:Because He came low for me, I can trust Him with every low and hidden place in my life.
✨ In This Episode
* The humility of Christ’s coming — the King who chose the lowest place
* Why the manger matters for our own stories
* How His lowliness reveals the depth of His love
