The genealogy of Jesus at first look seemed boring. Its all about people's names and some of them are so hard to read, that its easy to give up. (Try say Amminadab or Jehoshaphat very quickly 10 times). But one thing God showed me through all these names of fathers and sons, and that is found in v23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel, which translated means, God with us."
God is with us. But I realised the wonderful thing is, God is with us from the very beginning. From the very beginning of the genealogy, God was with us. From Abraham to Joseph, God was with us. He was there every step of the way.
When I look at my journal entries I realised how far I have drifted... 3 months. 3 long months without QT. But guess what, God was with me even when I was not conscious of it. Thats how much God loves me. He was with me all the way.
Father, Lord and Saviour, thank you for being with me. Sorry that I was sooo far away. Preoccupied with playing WOW. Pray Lord You will help me put my priority in YOU. In Christ name I pray, Amen.
