Living in the Reality of God With Us

When Christ our God was born, "He bowed the heavens and came down." As our Lord took on flesh, He bent heaven to earth so that fallen man may experience Him and His Kingdom and be elevated toward heaven. Therefore, He would be called Emmanuel which means "God with us." But do we live our lives as Christians in the reality that God is with us every moment of every day? Today we are challenged to ponder the wonder of God coming to earth and dwelling among us and within us. We would live so differently and be filled with such greater joy if we embraced the truth that God is ever-present with us and we are the same with Him.
