Immanuel -Matthew 1:22-23, Isaiah 7:10-15, John 1:14
Exposure: Read the passages about Immanuel. Make a sign that reminds you that God is with you and hang it up somewhere that you see often.
Exploration: Immanuel means "God with us." How is Jesus still "God with us" even now that He's not walking on the earth?
Expression: How is God "for" us different than God "with" us? What are some ways you sense God with you?
Experience: Discuss with friends or family or journal about a time in your life when you felt the closest to Jesus. Make plans to do something today to get closer to God. How important is it to seek to experience that closeness all the time?
