This morning’s devotion evolved around the awareness that Jesus is “always” with us! He is Immanuel (God with us).
Specifically, I was reminded of the promise that Jesus is always with us. Think about it. In both the good times and the bad times, He is with us. He is not just with us on holidays such as Christmas or Easter, but “always”.
You see, that is what makes it Good News, that brings Great Joy, to All People! (Luke 2:10)
In reflection, the name Immanuel came to mind, and I was reminded of a scripture we often only reference during Christmas (the Birth) or Easter (the Resurrection) as an example. (Matthew 1:23).
However, it is a promise that continues – always – for every hour, of every day, of our entire lives!
So, I guess while we say “…Merry Christmas…” once a year, we could also say “…Merry Christ Day…” each and every day!
Because He is Immanuel!
