This sermon was truly a powerful reminder of who God is-both the Mighty Creator of the universe and the tender, loving Savior who meets us in our struggles. The way you connected the vastness of creation, like the billions of stars, to the intimacy of God knitting us together in our mothers' wombs was awe-inspiring. It beautifully bridges the grandeur of God’s transcendence with the personal care of His immanence, which is at the heart of the Advent season. I loved the reflection on Isaiah 9:6 and the title "Mighty God." It’s so easy to forget, especially during life’s challenges, that the same God who created the heavens is also the God who came down to walk with us, cry with us, and redeem us. The image of Jesus as a helpless baby, relying on Mary and Joseph, perfectly captures the humility and love of the Incarnation. It’s such a profound reminder that God’s power is made perfect in weakness, and that He invites us to trust Him even when His plans don’t align with ours. The personal story you shared about walking through loss and wrestling with faith added such authenticity to the message. It’s comforting to know that even in our doubts and heartbreak, God doesn’t dismiss our pain-He weeps with us, just as Jesus wept with Mary and Martha. That image of Jesus as both Wonderful Counselor and Mighty God is so encouraging, especially during Advent, when we’re called to prepare our hearts for His coming. Finally, the call to pour out love and serve others as a reflection of God’s love hit home. Your church’s commitment to charity-packing over a million meals and hosting events for the vulnerable-shows what it means to live out the Incarnation. As St. Teresa of Calcutta said, “It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.” Thank you for this inspiring message. It reminded me not only of the hope we have in Christ but also of the ways we can be His hands and feet in the world. God bless!
