Look now!

O ye beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps so slow;
Look now, for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing;
Oh rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels, and hear them sing
- It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

Thinking about the promises fulfilled by Christ's coming takes my breath away.

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, Lord God Almighty, The Most High God, Master, My Banner, My Shepherd, Healer, God With Us, Our Righteousness, Everlasting, Provider

What a wonder, today, to rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing!
Merry Christmas!
