Jesus is the God-with-us, our Emmanuel. He gave up everything to be born a baby. He lived among us and so truly does understand humanity. The beginning as well as the end of Jesus' life are the source of our hope and faith. The promise to which we latch our faith is the hope of the experience of the endless love of God cascading into our hearts. Every struggle we go through must be met by love. Our hope is in a Saviour, who is willing to be with us in every situation and will supply every lack that we have. Let this Christmas be the time that you truly encounter the perfect love of Jesus, He is with us!
