Christ knew in advance

none of the moments random

all preordained

Christ knew in advance

each step of His life

before He descended from heaven

before His manger bed

Christ knew completely

everything that would happen

Christ chose to descend

knowing every step before Him

Choosing like and the way of the cross.
