Wishing you all a Merry Christmas. May you be filled with God's joy and peace this year.
It has been a wonderful time for us here. The presents were opened. The kids were so surprised and joyful with their gifts. The sermon was excellent last night. It has been a wonderful time for us here. I hope it has been the same where ever you are.
Most importantly, we have been so blessed to be able to spend time with our kids talking about Jesus. That is the most important thing to me. I hope that you have taken some time to remember the real reason why we celebrate Christmas.
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about."
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
Luke 2:13-20
