In the Old Testament, God's presence was conditional. Keep the law. Be obedient and He would show up. If not, than separation between God and man was inevitable. God Himself was not satisfied with this arrangement. He knew we could never be good enough to get to Him, so He crossed over into our world, and became flesh, so that we could become One with Him. You may be wondering if God is really FOR you. One of His names is Emmanuel. It means 'God WITH us.' He is not watching from a distance. Today, you can enjoy the presence of God. You are never alone, rejected, or abandoned. Open your heart to Him. This Christmas, let Him give you the PRESENT of His Presence. Merry Christmas! God bless you. We love you!
