Today's daily devotion

Joy to the World

Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.—Luke 2:14 (NIV)

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale rejoiced, “Light has come! Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace—Jesus Christ, the Light of Christmas, has come! The day God blessed us with His Son, the only Source of eternal life.” On the advent of our Savior, the arrival of the One who came to save us, thank God for the greatest gift of all time. Extend this love and joy—and bask in His blessings.

Dear Lord, thank You for the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today, as I celebrate with family and friends, I will savor every moment of the peace, love, and joy of Your presence.
