Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men! — Luke 2:14As a kind reminder (especially to myself) the peace offered today is not man's peace. It is not the peace we make by signing treaties or settling old feuds. The peace offered today is God's peace.
We all make war on God every day. We are the ones who opened fire. We are the ones who created the dividing wall between ourselves and God. We are the ones who chose darkness over the light.
Christ is born today in order to eradicate all of that. Sin has been forgiven. Death no longer has its sting. Only love and forgiveness remain, despite everything we are and everything we have done.
Today, Christ reminds us of everything He was willing to do in order to give us a path to His loving embrace.
Merry Christmas.
