In His infinite love, God sent His Son to be born of a virgin. And while we celebrate Christ’s birth in December, it is His resurrection that transforms our hope into a living hope.

When the Son of Man came to earth, God in the flesh dwelt among us. The Prince of Peace humbled Himself and submitted Himself to all of the challenges and emotional frustrations of being human. And in the midst of the trouble and strife we all face, He offers a peace that surpasses all understanding—a peace that can only be found in Him.
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
Take a moment today to thank God for His perfect gift of peace. And don’t forget that the best gifts are shared with others.
