                                            Isaiah 
                                            7:10-14. Romans 1:1-7. Matthew 1:18-24 
                                             
                                            See the finger of your Creator 
                                              - Lord in all signs and wonders 
                                              for did He not put all things into 
                                              motion and does he not constructively 
                                              sustain all he has created? But 
                                              see His power and His love in all 
                                              that lives and moves and in the 
                                              constant re-creation of His worlds 
                                              and universe and all within them.
                                            But most of all consider and respond 
                                              to the grace and power offered to 
                                              the sons of men through the incarnation 
                                              of His love in time. I, His Son, 
                                              beloved and loving, took on human 
                                              nature to be the way, the truth, 
                                              the life to all who would receive 
                                              me and – with Our Holy Spirit 
                                              - to redeem and sanctify the sons 
                                              of men and the whole creation.
                                            Through the love, obedience and 
                                              faithfulness of one that was made 
                                              possible. Identify and follow: receive 
                                              the gift the Father offers every 
                                              one of His beloved sons and daughters.
