Matthew 1:23
Behold, a virgin shall be with child,
and shall bring forth a son,
and they shall call his name Emmanuel,
which being interpreted is,
God with us.
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born,
speaks of His humanity
unto us a Son is given:
speaks of His Deity
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
He shall reign as King of Kings
and Lord of Lords
and his name shall be called Wonderful,
this name is a noun,
not an adjective,
and speaks of His Person and work
Counsellor,
His wisdom in government
The mighty God,
the omnipotent, supreme Ruler
The everlasting Father,
the Father, or source, of eternity
He inhabits and possesses eternity
The Prince of Peace
Sar-Shalom
the One who will at last
bring peace to this troubled world
Until all prophecy is fulfilled
these things can be fulfilled in our individual lives.
Is He your Father?
Your God?
Your Counsellor?
Do you have peace?
Romans 5:1
Therefore, having been justified by faith,
we have[ peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Then, that’s
****

So thankful today that God is with us, that He never forsakes us! xxx

Thanks for your sweet thoughts and comments on my blog. I am with you on the friendship thing, but I do think also that when you have been given a physical gift from a friend whom you truly love, that makes that 'gift' all the more special!
