It was a night of suddenlies. A night of peace – joy – hope found – a glorious night!  Yes!  A glorious night indeed.

THEN all at once, a vast number of glorious angels appeared, the very armies of heaven. And they all praised God, singing:

“GLORY to God in the highest realms of heaven!  For there is peace and a good hope given to the sons of men.”          (Luke 2:13-14 TPT)

I love the Christmas story.  Each year as I read from God’s Word, I am touched in so many different ways by the words about my Savior!

So many times I have thought about those shepherds out in the field doing their thing – and out of nowhere, the Armies of God appeared in the sky with glorious light – with glorious news – filled with praise – a glorious song of praise!

I often wonder, if somewhere in homes across the sea, if there is a generation of believers who were related to one of those shepherds!  Sitting down for a Christmas meal together and reminiscing about a great grandfather who was there on that glorious night.  I pray that the lineage didn’t lose the story along the way.

I love Christmas Eve!  It is always filled with hope – with glorious thoughts of a night so long ago, that a Savior was borne.

I know for many this year, it will be a difficult year.  Maybe you have experienced loss in some way and its hard to focus upon that glorious night.  I pray that the Savior of World comes to wrap his loving arms about you and fills you with his love.  He can do that!  I know – for I have experienced it throughout my life time.

I leave a song for you.  I pray that it surrounds you with the love of Jesus.  And just know, that a grandma somewhere in the world is praying for you.

Oh What a Glorious Night!

There will be a beautiful moon out tonight.  I pray that you will be able to see it.  I pray that you will sense God’s Presence.
