O Emmanuel

O Emmanuel, God with us, Our King and Lawgiver, the expected of the nations and their Saviour: come to save us, O Lord our God. Amen.

If God is with us, God is with us in everything. That means that God standing next to the prisoner in Abu Grabh prison whilst guards torture and bully. God holds the hand of the African midwife accused of witchcraft. God lives in the homes of the couples in California whose marriage certificates were rendered null and void at the stroke of a lawyer's pen. God's own hand is held out for food in Darfur.

The o­ne who by rights might give out judgement is o­n its receiving end. God is with us and in that realization lies our salvation.
