Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us." MATTHEW 1:23
While Christ's birth is a historical event, translating into my life is a choice I have to make.
My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you…” (Galatians 4:19)
I must allow myself to be a Bethlehem for the saviour to be born, by being born again - John 3:7
The evidence of the new birth is that I yield myself so completely to God that “Christ is formed ” in me. And once “Christ is formed ” in me, His nature immediately begins to work through me.
Is the nature of God evident in you?
Today my friend, you can make that choice, you can yield yourself to God by being born anew. Then Christmas will take on a whole new meaning.
Merry Christmas.
