Peace to you. . .

And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, 

I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. . .”  

 And suddenly there was with the angel 

a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”

Luke 2:10-11; 13-14

Project Details 

NEW: ODBD Sparkling Snowflake Stamps (December 2012 Release)

OLD: Re-purposed ribbon
We may be beginning the second week of the new year, but I'm not yet ready to stop celebrating the miracle of Christmas! And thankfully, I don't have too, because we can worship and praise our Lord all year in all that we do!! The world may try and relegate Christ to one day in "their" year (and many try and excise Him all together!), but the truth is that He is Lord every single nano-second of every single day! You can lock yourself in a dark closet and refuse to believe there is a bright sun shining in the sky, but it doesn't change the fact there is a sun. Truth is not subjective, it is objective and the object of all truth is Jesus Christ! Someday, every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord. . .some will do so with love and adoration as they enter in to a glorious and bright eternity with the Lord, and others with awestruck terror as they realize what awaits. . .but while they live there is yet time! May the Lord have mercy and may His Gospel of Peace, bring reconciliation and healing for all eternity!
