All I Want For ChristmasMfano

At Christmas time the word “peace” is everywhere. It’s on holiday signs, in Christmas songs, on Christmas cards, and in holiday decorations. But the truth is, oftentimes the Christmas season is filled with, well, the opposite of peace. Just one glance at social media or the local news can remind us of all the ways that comparison, anger, frustration, and busyness are everywhere during the holiday season—not peace.

In the midst of a hectic Christmas season, as Jesus followers, we’re called not to just sing about peace or send a card with peace written on it—we’re called to live it out.

What better time than Christmas to rise above the comparison, anger, busyness, and everything else, and embrace God’s call to peace?

Who in your life—a friend, parent, stepparent, or sibling—could use a little peace right now? Today, get creative and look for one way to bring a little peace to their Christmas right now.
