God with Us

“See, the virgin will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and they will name him Immanuel, which is translated “God is with us”” (Matthew 1:23)
 
This verse answers humanity’s oldest fear are we alone in our circumstances? Jesus is not just a messenger he is God. Jesus born on this earth as God incarnate came because God saw us in our suffering, our circumstances, and situations decided to be with us. God came close to us not wanting to be far off. God stepped into our world being born the same as all of us. Can identify with all of us.

​Jesus did not come to be above us or below us but to be fully present, engaged, and walk among us with all the burdens that we carry. He is with us every step of the way. There is no situation that is not with us. He is with us when we suffer. He is with us when we rejoice. He is with us when our hearts feel heavy. He is with us when we are uncertain. He is God with us in every situation. There are times in our life that feel like he is far from us, and we are alone in the situation. Take courage for he came for each one of us. To be With Us not matter how difficult the burden we are carrying may feel.
 
Heavenly Father, we thank you for Jesus that you loved us to send your son down to earth to be with us.
 
Walking with you,
