this is Christmas....


....nothing more,
nothing less!

One scared, exhausted, teenage mother who found favor with God,
not by anything she did or said or was.
One humble, bewildered, young man who stood by his promised wife in spite of all odds.
And 
Immanuel,
God with us....
the Savior of the world.

This is the simple truth of Christmas.
This is what we celebrate.
This is who we are.
