The Gift of Peace
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men” – Luke 2:l4 (K.J.V.)
There is a story about a junior angel who was spending his first Christmas in heaven. A senior angel was showing him around. Of course the junior angel was awed by the gorgeous sites … a beautiful galaxy, shining stars, the whole universe! Every site was breathless! The senior angel explained that God had a plan for peace. God looked down and saw all the violence, wars, evil and pestilence on earth. His plan was to send His only Son to save the people and bring peace throughout the world. He would be called Prince of Peace. The junior angel was so excited and said, “They must have really loved him … must have really been grateful for sending His own Son.” Sadly, the senior angel replied, “No, they killed Him!” Sad truth: Jesus died. Good News: They killed the messenger but they could not kill the message! More Good News: Christmas comes each year to remind us that His message lives on in us! Prayer: “Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.”
There will be one service of worship this Sunday in our church (11:00 a.m.) featuring our Bell Choir who will present a Musical entitled, “ANGELS, A MANGER AND ONE SMALL CHILD” -Written and narrated by Rev. Dan Minor
