Do not be afraid; for see—I am bringing you
good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a
Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will
find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a
multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the
highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favors! Luke 2:10-14
For lo!
The days are hast’ning on, by prophets seen of old, when with the ever-circling
years shall come the time foretold, when peace shall over all the earth its
ancient splendors fling, and all the world give back the song which now the
angels sing. ELW 282, st. 4
May the
peace of Christmas be yours and may the peace of Christ spread anew throughout
the world. Amen. --JC
