This morning, in Bible Study, we finished up Matthew's first chapter, discussing particularly the birth of Christ. We had a great discussion about the humility of Christ in emptying Himself and being subject to the very creatures He created. Imagine the God of this universe subjecting Himself to being cared for as an infant in every way that an infant must be cared for by His parents! Matthew reminds us of this amazing truth by pointing out that Jesus, in fulfillment of the Old Testament, would be called "Immanuel," which means "God with us." Think on that as we prepare for this holiday season.
