Day Six – Peace

Today's Reading

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring
you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,

“Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.”

Luke 2:8 -14 (NIRV)

The shepherds probably had a fire going during the night to keep them warm and cook their food. Light the little tea lights. Put a marshmallow on a fork or a skewer and toast them together.

Chat Together:

  • Why do you think the angels said the birth of Jesus was such good news?
  • What do you think the peace is that Jesus brings?
  • What do you think Messiah means?
