Emmanuel !

Today is the first day of December, and Matthew tells us in the first chapter of his gospel:
     "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."

I really like this devotional thought from Oswald Chambers:

     "Jesus Christ is not man becoming God, but God incarnate -- God coming into human flesh from outside it.  His life is the highest and the holiest entering through the most humble of doors.  Have I allowed my personal human life to become a "Bethlehem" for the Son of God?"

     "Where meek souls will receive Him still, the dear Christ enters in."
