"And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."
Luke 2:13-14
In the hectic flurry of holiday activities, the angel's message can easily be lost. In an effort to celebrate to the fullest, we sometimes place unrealistic demands on ourselves. When the season comes to an end, we may realize we have not celebrated peace, but rather buried it beneath a mountain of obligations. During this season of peace and goodwill, may we remember the news proclaimed so joyously on that night centuries ago: "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."
