TODAY’S MESSAGE
When you see the manger scene, do you realize that God came down to earth so that he could hang on a tree, or is he just displayed as a babe in a manger? Do we leave him there? There’s more to the story than what we read on Christmas cards. The baby is God.
 
How far are we from God this Christmas? Think about it. What happened in that Bethlehem manger? God came to earth. He was God when he was in the womb of the mother Mary. He was God growing up. He was God as He hung on the cross for our sins. We need to remember that.
 
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
 
My concern about having peace is with each and every one of you here today. That babe in swaddling clothes is the answer. Do you have peace?
