“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”
Luke 2:14
(KJV)
What is peace? Is it a feeling or an emotion? Is peace something that is gained from meditating in serene surroundings until your mind is empty? No. Peace is a person and His Name is Jesus Christ. He gives peace that surpasses our human understanding of what peace looks like. It’s in Jesus that we find peace in the storms of life, even when we are right in the middle of it.
When the angels rejoiced in Jesus’ birth they sang peace on earth and goodwill to all men. They knew that something world changing had happened. They knew that the Prince of peace had been born. They knew His Name was Jesus. And they knew that was cause to rejoice.
Today, if you are looking for peace, then look no further than Jesus. Rejoice in His birth, life, death and resurrection. Jesus is PEACE.
