对今日诗句的想法
神在意我们每一个人。他给了我们这个兆头。因为马太对以马内利这个名字的注解，我们知道这个兆头指的就是主耶稣作为神来到我们中间，与我们同在。他的同在就是神的同在。他的生命就是神所给的兆头。主耶稣的降生就是神的大能，表明了他对我们的恩典。
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
God is interested in us personally. So much so, that he personally gives us this sign. Because of Matthew's explanation of the meaning of the name Immanuel, we know what that sign was — Jesus coming to live as God with us. His presence is God's presence. His life is God's sign. The miracle of his conception is God's mystery and also his statement of grace for us.
我的祷告
圣洁、全能的主啊，你没有疏远我们。感谢你藉着主耶稣住在我们中间。因着你付上的代价以及背负的痛苦，我感谢赞美你。我深知你为此付出了巨大代价，愿我祷告中的赞美、诗歌、意念与生命都体现我对你的感恩。奉耶稣之名求，阿们！
My Prayer...
Holy and Almighty Lord who refuses to be the god who is detached and far away: I thank you for coming to live among us in Jesus. I thank you and praise you for your sacrifice and pain. I know this sign cost you greatly so please let my praise in prayer, song, thought and life reflect my thanks to you in Jesus name. Amen.
