I’m longing for Christmas this year, can’t come soon enough for me.
Meanwhile, here’s Nat King Cole and Hark the Herald Angels Sing.
God promises us peace and mercy.
From our worldly rulers we get neither.

I’m saving a couple of these carols for tomorrow morning.
Reaching Back to Christmas
Look at this flaming mess we call our world today! Anyone would think we didn’t have a Savior.
As I tried to pray just now, this came into my mind–Hark the Herald Angels Sing. Yeah, I know it isn’t Christmas anymore. But then it’s always Christmas, if Jesus Christ is born to us, in our hearts, every day. Read the lyrics: don’t they apply to all 365 days of the year?
“Oh, what’s that poor fool doing, trotting out a Christmas carol in March?”
Well, I think we need it! I know I do.
Sung by the Yoder Family. I say, Amen.

(One More Time) ‘Hark the Herald Angels Sing’
Yes, I know–the Creche has been put away, our Christmas tree is down–but let me indulge in one more Christmas carol. I know there have been worse times than this in history–World War II, to name just one of many–but in my own lifetime, this era is far and away the worst I’ve ever seen. If we have ever needed that baby in the manger, we need Him now. Come, Lord Jesus, come!
