Advent Devotional - Day 10

Numbers 6:26:  The Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace

Picture yourself at the manger on Christmas morning.  What do you see?  In every depiction you see two loving parents looking into the face of their newborn son.  There is a peaceful calming feeling as the baby sleeps.  Babies seem to bring a peace around us.  They make everything better.  As we remember the manger and the Baby Jesus looking up ready to bring peace to the world and take away our sins, we need to look into the faces of all the people we meet and find that peace.

PRAYER
Lord, help us to see peace in all the people we encounter as we seek your love and understanding each and every day.
