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. - Isaiah 9:6

The people were living in dark times as Isaiah prophesized about Jesus being born. As brought out in “Dawning Light”, God’s plan breaks through the darkness, because hope is in the living God and the Wonderful Counselor.

Give praise to our living God with the song Emmanuel by Amy Grant. Jesus, who lived on earth, was crucified, rose, and continues to live. He changed the world in every way and has had the most extensive impact on this day and on future tomorrows. More than anyone else in the history of the world.
