God with us
Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son. Mathew 1:18-25
‘Immanuel… God with us’ (23). Think of what this means! Here are some words to help you. ‘He walked where I walked, He stood where I stand, He felt what I feel, He understands. He knows my frailty, shared my humanity, tempted in every way, yet without sin. God with us, so close to us. God with us, ‘Immanuel!’.
Let your thoughts move on to the Cross – ‘He died in my place that I might live’. Let your heart be filled with worship: ‘Immanuel, O Immanuel, bowed in awe I worship at your feet, and sing Immanuel, God is with us; Sharing my humanness, my shame, feeling my weakness, my pain, taking my punishment, my blame, Immanuel. And now my words cannot explain, all that my heart cannot contain, how great are the glories of Your Name, Immanuel’ (Mission Praise, 221,326)
