A Child is Born

A child was born many years ago who would change the world. Isaiah, the prophet, said it like this through the inspiration of God. "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of His government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over His kingdom,establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever." Because a child was born, we have a bridge back to God. Because a child was born, we can experience the love and forgiveness of our Heavenly Father. Because a child was born, we can walk in victory. Because a child was born, we have the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. Because a child was born, we have harmony in our home. Because a child was born, we can have eternal life.
