22, 2019 – “Have you
thought about what "...God with us…" means? The angel said
that Mary's child would be called the "Son of God," so Jesus is God!
The child would also be "...with
us..." He came down to be "with" us from heaven,
He is "with" us in humility and in our humanity. This child is with
us, the last of us, the least of us and
the lost of us. He is God the son and Son of God! He is the most unique being
in the entire universe. He is the matchless One! He is more than “Wonderful!” S.
E. Trail
My prayer for
you today is for you to enjoy a time of worship with Emmanuel, “God with us.”
Malachi
4:2 But
unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in
his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. KJV
It was the day
after Christmas at St Peter and St Paul's church in Borden, Kent, England.
Father John, the vicar, was looking at the nativity scene outside when he
noticed the baby Jesus was missing from the figures. Immediately, Father John's
thoughts turned to calling in the local policeman but as he was about to do so,
he saw little Nathan with a red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the
little infant, Jesus. Father John approached Nathan and asked him, 'Well,
Nathan, where did you get the little infant?' Nathan looked up, smiled and
replied, 'I took him from the church.' 'And why did you take him?' With a
sheepish grin, Nathan said, 'Well, Father John, about a week before Christmas I
prayed to Lord Jesus. I told him if he would bring me a red wagon for
Christmas, I would give him a ride around the block in it.'
