To see the original html page, click the file link on the left."God is with us." In Luke, Jesus rebuked the disciples for wanting to lay waste to a village. He's with us, and he loves us. He doesn't want to hurt us. He is with us-every second, every minute-right here in my office, in your home, while you're at work. He doesn't ignore your problems, he doesn't care if you're in a bad mood, he sees through the high days and low days and every day. He is with us. I can't make a better interpretation than this: he is with us, even, as the Scriptures tell us, to the end of time.Beyond salvation, what better news can there be?
