What an amazing God we have! When we think of God and man it is difficult to think of anything more different. He is perfect, holy, sinless, all-love, all-grace, all-mercy, and all-truth. He is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, eternal, and unchangeable. Man is none of these, we must work at being holy, loving, merciful, graceful, and truthful and we cannot be omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, eternal, and unchangeable. All of this makes the truth of Emmanuel even more amazing.
Emmanuel means, “God with us.” This is one of the most amazing facts feasible. God with us – it doesn’t really even make any sense does it? How does it happen, this “God with us-ness?” It happens only by the grace and mercy of our loving, merciful, perfect, indescribable God.
Every day when I awake I need to remember that the God who brought the morning is here, with me. May and love, serve, praise, and sing to the God Who is with me!
