Jesus was poor,
born under a foreign dictatorship,
a child at extreme risk.

But on the day of His birth,
a choir of countless angels sang,
“Glory to God in the highest;
and on earth, peace to people
with whom He is well pleased”
(Luke 2:14).

It is true:
Life is full of pain and misery.

But God sent Jesus
to bring peace on earth,
peace to humanity,
peace to you and your loved ones

It is true:
Life is full of pain and misery.

But you have to hold on to hope.
Embrace the hope of Christmas.
Embrace the hope of peace—
the peace that only Jesus
can give—
the peace that “transcends
all understanding”
(Philippians 4:7).
