Imagine A King
Who Would Imagine A King – Matt Bloyd’s Heavenly Version
Have you watched any good Christmas movies yet?
I don’t know about you, but there are some older ones that I look forward to every year.
One of those is, “The Preacher’s Wife,” starring Whitney Houston and Denzel Washington.
I love that movie and especially one of the feature songs, “Who Would Imagine A King”.
The first time I heard it, I was awestruck at how beautiful it is, even to this day.
You can’t top Whitney’s vocals in the movie, but I did find another version of this lovely song that I couldn’t wait to share with you.
This duet by Matt Bloyd and Shoshana Bean is nothing short of magical.
Okay, I know it’s from 2017, but I just found it. 🙂
This is what I love to do when I hear this song – close my eyes, turn up the volume, and imagine myself humbly witnessing that blessed moment – right after Jesus was born.
Hope you enjoy.
There go the happy tears of joy again!
Imagine A King – Our King, Lord of Lords!
In Luke Chapter 2, the gospel writer gives us a glimpse at the amazing scene.
19 But Mary treasured all these things, pondering them in her heart. 20 The shepherds went back, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen, just as had been told them. – Luke 2:19-20. (NASB).
Many people read those words without giving them a second thought.
But, if you really think about it, when something spectacular and joyful happens in your life, don’t you love to replay it in your mind, over and over again?
I’m talking about those special life-changing moments that you will treasure forever in your heart.
Mary and Joseph saw the hand of God working through the miraculous birth of our Messiah.
Everything they saw, and everything they were told was proven true.
We have reason to celebrate.
The newborn Christ of Christmas grew up to save us from our sins.
Someday, we will meet Him!
Now that’s a blessed truth to ponder.
All the glory to our King of Kings!
