What makes Christmas such a special time for Christian around the world?
It’s the knowledge that at this time many years ago, Jesus was born. i.e. God came to earth in the form of Jesus, and He lived among us, as one of us.
So can we really question whether God knows and understands what living here can mean? He’s been here…but more importantly, He’s still here with us. Jesus may have died and risen from the dead but because of that we are now assured that God will love each one of us, faults and all.
Please remember again the true reason we celebrate Christmas.
John 1:14 (New Living Translation)
So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.
Here With Me by MercyMe
I long for your embrace
Every single day
To meet you in this place
And see you face to face
Will you show me?
Reveal yourself to me
Because of your mercy
I fall down on my knees
And I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I’m lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender to your love
You’re everywhere I go
I am not alone
You call me as your own
To know you and be known
You are holy
And I fall down on my knees
I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I’m lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender to your love
I surrender to your grace
I surrender to the one who took my place
I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I’m lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender:
I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I’m lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender to your love
