LOOKING FORWARD


2 Peter 3:14 (NKJV) 14 Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;
   Shepherds working in the night are confronted with the presence of an angel, proclaiming a birth only read and discussed among the religious elite. Fear comes knocking and these humble men find themselves being comforted and encouraged, by Gods heavenly choir. They hear Good News and discover Great Joy, a child will restore Gods people to their rightful place. He is called "Savior, Christ and Lord" referring to the work of Grace to be produced through Him, for all people who come to Him will be blessed.
   This season is referred to as Peace, we are to seek good for others, however the Word of God says that must be our life style if, we belong to Him. We are to live diligent lives working at peace and making sure we encourage others without causing anyone to stumble by our sinfulness.
   As Gods servants we are looking forward to the day of His appearing just as the shepherds did many years ago, He will come and we must be busy sharing Peace with those around us. Won't you trust Him completely today?
Heavenly Father in you we find Peace and Rest, let us embrace all that You have planned and give all Glory and Honor to You. Amen
