Luke 2:9-10
An angel of the Lord appeared to them [the shepherds], and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people."

Too often the stress of the holiday and the
sadness of life overwhelm. Then I hear the sweet sound of a child's laughter or
the tender voice of a grandchild saying he loves me. I see friends hug as they
greet one another. I watch a mom love on her kids. Jesus came to earth to bring
peace and joy. Though the world is not at peace right now and sometimes joy is
not obvious, peace and joy remain in my heart because the Holy Spirit dwells in
me. As Christmas draws near, I'll cling to the promise of the angels. Jesus
brings good news that will cause great joy. Praise God for his precious gift.
