Immanuel

If your life seems to be physically sinking deeper into problems, sink yourself spiritually deeper into your relationship with God. Don’t let sin and the things of this world distract you. Prophecies were fulfilled in the coming of Immanuel – God with us! Have you accepted Him?

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. - Isaiah 7:14
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. - John 1:1- 5
He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God. 14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. - John 1:10-14

Remember: Jesus is where your hope lies because God so loved the world (that means you!).

Be wise today and always -grow with God even during the hard times.
