The Weary World Rejoices, Luke 2.1-20

Nativity,_St._Catherine_Monastery,_Sinai,_6th_century.jpg

On Christmas Eve, we begin the celebration of Jesus Christ’s birth! We continue this celebration for 12 days and rejoice in the goodness of God to send his Son into this world. Jesus is God incarnate, God in the flesh. And his coming means that a weary world can rejoice in the mercies of God.
