When the angels appeared in the sky to the shepherds, their song was a song of peace for all humanity. So where is this peace, we ask? In a world of turmoil and division, we need peace more than anything. The Christmas story reminds us that through Jesus, God began setting the world right, healing all rifts, mending all brokenness, and sowing the seeds of peace. Through Jesus, God came to dwell as one of us.
