December 21

Matthew 1:23
23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which translated means, “God with us.”


Christ is with us. In all our preparation, in all our busyness, in all our ups and downs, God is with us. Since we've always had it available, and even sung about Emmanuel, perhaps this Truth has not sunk in yet. While God was distant before Christ, He can now live inside each of us and be literally with us. Immanuel is here.

Spend some time with Him now, thanking Him for His presence, and discussing the next few days - the last of your Advent preparation. Is He prioritized? He is here. Immanuel is just as present today as He was in the manger. Are you worshipping the King?
