Today, we see Jesus reveal his glory at the fig tree, calling some of his first disciples to follow him and to see where he would lead them. As we join Jesus at the fig tree, we also see where Jesus leads us—to faith, life and salvation. He turns our doubts to belief and leads us to call others, as we are compelled to say with the disciples, “Come and see.”

As we celebrate the incarnation of our Savior Jesus, we think about all that this means for us. God, the everlasting, almighty God, who fills the heavens and the earth, becomes flesh and blood just like us. He joins us in this world of darkness as a man—God himself, with us. Today we focus on the name "Immanuel," which means "God with us." This Christmas, we consider what that means for us today and for all eternity—that God is truly with us as his people.
