There is more to this Christmas story ~
His name was called JESUS, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb. ~ Luke 2:21
One of the privileges and joys of being a parent is naming your child. It's a sweet blessing after nine months of waiting for and untold hours of delivering that child into the world. And the name that is chosen usually has great meaning or it just sounds right.
The Christmas child was given a name by His Heavenly Father, not His earthly parents. He was given a name of great significance ~ Jesus or Immanuel ~ which means God is with us.
God is with us. Let that settle on our brains and our hearts. God is with us. God came to our level in our form to be with us at great sacrifice to Himself. Why would He do that?
Love.
