Christmas Eve Thoughts

Here are a few late-night thoughts. As I sat in church earlier this night I felt an incredible peace. It was a peace in knowing that no matter what goes on around me, I know that God is in control and working behind the scenes at all times. When Jesus came to the world there was great unrest: power and corruption were the names of the game and the Jewish people were in desperate need of a King. Added to that, God had been silent for nearly 500 years, the situation was truly hopeless. Yet in the darkness, God shined a light, His light, and came into our world and took it by storm. Whether you're having the best Christmas of your life or in a really low place right now, remember one thing--God is there, and He gave you an incredible gift: Himself. It's late, and I have a big day tomorrow, but I just wanted to leave you with that one thought. I pray that your Christmas is joyful, and your travels safe. God bless, and good night.
