There is a specific difference between last weeks message about Christmas (that of HOPE) and today's message about Christmas… being a message of PEACE. With HOPE there is a small amount that can attributed to what we can DO... we know the word of God, we see the person of Jesus, we experience the moving the Holy Spirit and understand the love of our heavenly Father.
BUT with PEACE it isn't a response to something; rather it is the result FROM something, and while some hold the view that peace is the absence of conflict, I contend that one can still experience peace, even in the midst of battle, stress, or overwhelming situations.
