The promise of Christmas is Immanuel, which means “God With Us”. It’s a time of year to celebrate and remember that our God is not distant, and he himself stepped into our world to be our Saviour.
“For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
– Isaiah 9:6
