With our daughter in her first year at college, the anticipation for the holidays hits a little differently. In the midst of all the baking and decorating, there is this recurring thought - "I can't wait to welcome her home!"
I'm Brad Hutchcraft, and you can be sure that I'm not the first father ready to welcome his child home. Did you know that's how Jesus feels about you? He is our Heavenly Father that wants to welcome you home into His unconditional, unloseable love.
Isaiah 9:6 says, "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given... He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
There it is. "Everlasting Father." But don't miss the rest - He is our Counselor, He is Mighty God, and He is peace. He can be all those things for you, too. That's why He died on the cross and rose again over 2,000 years ago. So that you can have a chance to be welcomed home into His loving arms this Christmas.
