Glorify God

"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, goodwill toward men'!" Luke 2:13, 14

As I sit in my office and write this, the kids and adults are practicing the Christmas play right outside my office door. Some know their lines, some don't. Some know the songs, some don't. There is only eight more days until the "Camel Lot" program! Nerves are beginning to surface for the director and the kids! It seems like nothing is going right, all the props are not yet built, I just had to change some mics around to get more sound from the "shy" voices, there had to be a "pep" talk to get everyone to pay attention, etc...

I am reminded that the heavenly host glorified God and glorified the infant King on the day that we are about to celebrate and is the reason why we do these programs during the Christmas season in every church (hopefully) across our nation. So, even though things may not be "up to par" just yet, the final time that these kids go on stage to tell about the birth of Jesus will be a Glorious time because WE will be the one's that will be glorifying God in the highest!

The infant child, born of a virgin, was divinely sent to us to be our Savior! This, we should glorify our Father for because the Word says, "For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."
