saiah 9:6 declares, "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given," revealing God’s extraordinary love for all humanity. This love isn’t limited to a single nation or group—God so loved the world! Jesus, the Son, was given to bridge the vast gap between God and sin, offering reconciliation and hope to all. At the altar, we meet this prayer-answering God who loved us enough to give His Son. Today, as we lift our prayers, let us trust in His boundless love and power to heal, restore, and answer in ways only He can.
