Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!
And a Merry Christmas to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan and duty stations throughout the region. May God bless and protect them all and soon bring them safely home to their families.
May the coming victory over tyranny and terror bring an end to war and restore peace and tranquility to the Middle East and throughout the land. May God bless the newly liberated peoples of Iraq and Afghanistan. And may God continue to bless America.
The Angel of the Shepherds
Luke 2:8-14:
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them; and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men!"

Thank you, SlightOfTongue and Morgan.
