I like the angels in the Christmas story. I think it's fantastic that a massive gang of heavenly beings was there to proclaim the birth of Christ. In honour of which:
Angels from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
Come and worship, come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
Sages, leave your contemplations,
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star.
Come and worship, come and worship
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
Ended up going to church on my own last night. I'm so glad I did. It was so contemplative and peaceful; lots of things became clear to me, particularly when we sang that carol. God's in charge. Peace on earth; goodwill toward men... It's not so much a promise as a command.
Have a brilliant Christmas, everyone. Special love and prayers to people who are finding Christmas difficult this year. I'm off to eat.
