Christmas Eve
Luke 2:1-14
We want joy in our lives. When the world jerks us around, we look for ways to push back and fight back. That’s our story. But (and it’s a big but so you know it does not lie) the story that drew you in tonight is not a story of our initiative against the world's problems. We might find temporary relief in our story, but it rarely leads to the joy we feel tonight, the joy that was laid in a manger. Deep, abiding joy is the result of what God does.
Mary sang.
The shepherds danced their way back to the fields.
We are joyful. We can sing this evening because God has moved and is on the move. God is active in the world, confronting the ways of the world that are not the ways of God.
