Luke 2
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
“Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
Colossians 2:6
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him
Galatians 3:26
You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus
Colossians 1:10
And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God
Yesterday we thought of the angelic ways people can behave to one another. And some seasons, this seems to be lacking in our lives.
The truth is God provides for us all in incredibly sufficient ways.
We strive not to follow what is comfortable to us and, instead, in the reality of Life, to shine the Light of Jesus Christ in all seasons.
Stained glass is bits and pieces of sand, pummelled, stripped, heated and cut to the perfection of the Plan. Our Blessings of God can arrive - not in whole symphonies and instead in the aspect of God's daily provision. We find God ties all things together interweaving to find all things work together for Good for those who work according to the Purpose of God.
Amen and Amen for the People of God. His favor is to save the world in Jesus Christ.
