If you think about it, we have always been on God’s heart. No where is this more clear than in the Christmas story. Man was eternally separated from God and yet God made a way for man to come to Him through His Son and our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. God, at exactly the right time, sent Jesus to earth to identify and die in our place so that we could live. The Christmas story is about love, hope and an eternal gift that will bless us for all eternity if we receive it.
