God With Us brings...
HOPE - LOVE - JOY - PEACE
A remarkable thing happened that first Christmas, just as Isaiah had prophesied 700 years earlier – Jesus was born as Immanuel – which means “God with us!” Miraculously, we continue in God’s story of love everyday as he promises to never leave us or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5).
God’s peace can fill us and rule within us even when we are surrounded by death and evil. God’s presence and peace can pierce even dark and painful surroundings and circumstances. We may not be able to end the personal, emotional, cultural, or physical wars we are fighting this holiday season, but even in those darkest places, we can lean into the God who is with us.
