Immanuel

Immanuel.

A time to reflect, a time to take stock.
A time for laughter, a time to relax.
A time to remember the gift of your presence.
Immanuel.

Thank you Jesus, that you came to earth.
Thank you Jesus, that you became one of us.
Thank you Jesus that you showed us the way.
Immanuel.

One year past and another beginning.
One year on a new journey, a new path.
One year of trust, one year of faithfulness.
Immanuel.

Two little boys so precious to hold.
Two little boys whom bring so much joy.
Two little boys I feel inadequate to lead.
Immanuel.

A selfish wife who wants to love more.
An impatient mother who wants to learn.
A self righteous heart that yearns for humility.
Immanuel.

People so full of life and rich in culture.
People wanting to be known and loved.
People so gifted and wonderfully made.
Immanuel.

Jesus, know me.
Jesus, see me.
Jesus walk with me.

Immanuel.
