Dial-A-Prayer (440) 988-2323
Text: Luke 2:14
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom he is
pleased!"
(This is the word of the Lord.)
How often we have heard this familiar passage from the Christmas story.  And
how often we have missed the impact of the Angels' song!  We usually think in
terms of the Messianic vision of peace and the presence of the new king.  What
I read here is something a little different.  I read of a peace which comes to
those who have received the favor of God.  We, as members of the Christian
community, are the people upon whom that special peace has fallen.
Let us pray:
Thank you, God, for being with us and providing your everlasting presence in
love.
Amen.
God bless you, and have a good day!
