Isaiah 9:6–7 is like a sunrise in scripture. Every name in that verse is a doorway into who Jesus is, not just in history, but in the quiet corners of our lives right now.
Here’s a little reflection to carry with you today:
“For unto us:” Not to the world in general, but to us, personally, intimately, lovingly. A gift placed into human hands.
“A child is born:” He came small so we would never be afraid to come close.
“A son is given:” Given freely. Given fully. Given forever.
“Wonderful Counsellor:” The One who understands every unspoken thought.
“Mighty God:” Strength wrapped in swaddling cloth.
“Everlasting Father:” The heart of God revealed in the face of a child.
“Prince of Peace:” Peace not as the world gives, but peace that settles the soul.
May you have a day touched by that same peace. A day where His light feels near, His counsel feels clear, and His love feels personal.
