I love this time of year. Not because of the tree hung with ornaments. Not because of the presents under that same tree. Not even the snow, Reindeers, Santa Clause, eggnog, colorful lights, mistletoe, and the great food is no reason for me to look forward this time of year.
It’s about God’s glory in the redemption of man.
Matthew 1:21-23
“And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins. Now all this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Immanuel; which is, being interpreted, God with us. “
