God with us

The birth of Jesus is the ultimate gift that says, “You matter!” Indeed, “His name shall be called Emmanuel–God with us!”

John 3:16-17 sums up the awesome act of defiant joy God did on our behalf: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”

Merry Christmas!!
