no matter where you are in life, what you're going through, there's a reason to celebrate because Christ is our hope. Christ has come so that we may have new life. He brings Good News of great joy.
this is one of my favorite Christmas songs, written by andrew peterson. he says it all a million times better than i ever could...
"While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around
"Fear not!" said he; for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled minds
"Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind
To you in David's house this day
Is born of David's line
The Savior who is Christ the Lord
And this shall be the sign:
The heavenly babe you there shall find
to human view displayed
All meanly wrapped in swaddling bands
And in a manger laid"
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Christ is born
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Christ is born
"All glory be to God on high
And to the earth be peace
Good will henceforth from God to man
Begin and never cease"
All seated on the ground
