Unto Us
Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given. God surrenders heaven to find you, to find me, whoever we are, wherever we are.

Peace is not the absence of problems. Peace is a person, Jesus Christ Himself.
When Life Seems to be Falling Apart
Where was God in Joseph’s darkest hour? Right where He needed to be – in the midst of it – fulfilling His marvelous plan for man’s salvation. In Joseph’s darkest moments, God was nearer to him than ever before.

Might confined to a manger. Creator curtailed to the form of a child. The paradox of grace as the Almighty indwells the womb He created and walks the earth He brought into being.
