God With Us!
God loves you so much that when you couldn't get to Him, He literally came down to you.
Last night on our Saturday prayer post across social media, there were many prayer requests shared. Thank you to everyone who joined me in praying for each other.
As I prayed through each request, my heart hurt as I was once again reminded of the pain we experience in this world.
I was also reminded of what the Bible said about the birth of Jesus: "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us" (Matthew 1:23).
Jesus, our Emmanuel, stepped into our dark world to pay for our brokeness. In the middle of our sinful world, God literally came to us.
There are many hurts and disappointments we face today, but Jesus has already defeated it all. God is still on the Throne. His Spirit is still leading and guiding those who listen. Take hope!
God loves you so much that when you couldn't get to Him, He literally came down to you.
I'll continue praying for us all this week. God bless you! 🙏
