Embracing Peace

Silent night . . . Holy night?  Sleep in heavenly peace? Really . . . at this time of year?

Facing stress is expected. Being stressed is totally different! Being stressed and being at peace are two different paradigms. There will always be gifts that are not purchased, decorations forgotten, and recipes misplaced or ingredients missing from the pantry. There can still be peace when we know Peace!

 Focusing on the Prince of Peace and HIS-story may help us all to be more at peace and less stress as the 25th approaches . . . Have we really embraced Him?

For unto us a Child is born,

Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of His government and peace

There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this. (Isaiah 9:6-7)
