Today's Devotion: Matthew 1:23 (New International Version)
"The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel"—which means, "God with us."

Today's devotion talks about how much God cares for us. He cares so much for us that even when we stray, He is still with us.

Today's Comments:

Today's devotion is an appropriate place for me to post the paper on James that I did for my New Testament survey class. In my opinion, James is exhorting all of us to live a life that honors Him who came to be with us. As you can also see, I am of the opinion that James is talking about both individual and corporate living, as members of Christ's Holy Church.
