God with us

Sometimes it is nice to take a familiar scripture and just think about it.

“The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (Isa 7:14, Matt 1:22-23).

The girl is Mary, the son is Jesus, therefore Jesus is Immanuel.

Immanuel means, “God with us.”

Look for these things and you will find him:

Peace = Jesus

Forgiveness = Jesus

Grace = Jesus

Today, right now, Jesus is still with us

“For unto us a child is born, and he will be called, wonderful counselor, mighty God, everlasting Father, Prince of peace’ (Isa 9:6)
