The Prince of Peace

On this, the last Sunday of Advent, we light the candle of Peace. And we consider Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s (1807-1882) words on the subject of Peace: Christmas Bells I heard the bells on Christmas DayTheir old, familiar carols play,And wild and sweetThe words repeatOf peace on earth, good-will to men!

Salvation

Have hope. We are more than sinners saved by grace. We are a new creation in Christ.

Love

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. 1 Colossians 13:7 NLT

Today

Work as unto the Lord, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Colossians 3:23, 1 Peter 4:11
