The Flesh of God

the Divine became flesh, blood, bones and muscles
the fullness of God contained in a fragile body
the intangible heavenly flesh among men
the Divine printed on a face, a body
the Divine nature in the form of people

and the divine flesh and blood,
felt in the skin which men feel
he ate what men eat
he slept like men sleep
he worked as men work

the Divine dwelt among us
supported claims, contradictions and human fears
he faced the serpent in the wilderness of life
he walked and ate with sinners
he announced that “God is Love” and the “Love” is the highest Law

full of the Divine Grace and Truth
he gave his all in return for nothing of men
he offered his Absolute Truth
in exchange for lies, vanities and sins,
the fullness of grace and truth of God in man united

the Divine in human form
Glory showed his being born in a humble cot
preferring the glory of God to the glory of men.
The flesh of God, which resulted in a baby,
provoked anger and perplexity of human vanity

the Divine, only Son of the Eternal God
fully God and fully man
born to give hope and salvation to men
the Divine incarnate in human
allowed that the man was clothed in Divine
