“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests

Luke 3:1-14

He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

Why?

Jesus is the Savior, the Messiah, who was born in the manger. This is the symbol of our Messiah.

Jesus is the king of Heaven, but He chose the humble way to come to this world.

Jesus brings peace to those on whom his favor rests.

How?

Praise the Lord and give thanks to Jesus Christ. Jesus was born for us and released us from sins.
