CHRISTMAS ~ WEEK THREE




"GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST
AND ON EARTH PEACE
AMONG PEOPLE WITH 
WHOM HE IS PLEASED"
 Luke 2:14

Peace with God, peace with yourself and peace with others.  Three of the highest forms of peace'

PEACE WITH GOD;  "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have PEACE WITH GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we also have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we celebrate in hope THE GLORY OF GOD.

PEACE WITH YOURSELF:  "The steadfast of mind You will keep in PERFECT PEACE, because he trusts in You.  Trust in the Lord forever."

PEACE WITH OTHERS:  "If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at PEACE with ALL PEOPLE.  Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God for it is written: Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

Gracious Father, our first desire is to bring You Glory.  Thank You for our salvation that brings us peace with you.  Thank You for taking our guilt and sin and being our substitute on the cross, that we could have peace with You.  Thank You that staying in Your Word and learning of You will keep our minds in perfect peace.  And Father, most difficult, give us your grace in dealing with people, and help us to learn to be peacemakers.  Glory to God in the Highest, and on earch Peace with whom You are pleased.  Amen!
