Luke 2:14 - Additional Comments

Isn't it interesting that this has become a slogan at Christmastime? Seemingly a slogan only, for it is lost in the commercial side of Christmas. Yet, in the same way that the angels shouted it, that should be our "raison d'etre" (our "reason for being") at Christmastime.
Many search for peace, but Jesus is the only way to have real and lasting peace, even so that it goes beyond our comprehension (Phil 4:6-7).
