3rd Week of Advent December 11 -Joy
Turmoil has engulfed the earth. There is unrest in the government. The Supreme Chancellor, God, has dispatched Holy angels, the guardians of peace and justice to bring joy to the universe. The mysterious count of the empire has made it difficult for the Holy angels to accomplish their mission of bringing joy to earth’s inhabitants. In a sudden moment in time, the Holy angels break though the ranks of the evil army. The commanding Holy angel steps forward, flashing his sword and proclaims: Luke 2:10–14 “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
And this will be a sign for you: you will find a Baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and 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 among those with whom He is pleased!” And God’s joy began to pulse through the veins of earth’s inhabitants.
