This song was such a poignant reminder to me this Christmas of how our peace must rest in Jesus, that I wanted to share it (Use this link: Casting Crowns). 

There can be no doubt that we live in difficult times, but it has always been said that “in this world you will have troubles”.  But Jesus also said that He “would overcome”.  And He has.  For no matter what challenges we face in this world, the greatest battle of all-has already been won.  

For no matter what happens on this earth- when our time here is done-  we will live forever in Heaven with the King of all Kings.  And our home in Heaven will be filled with a joy so pure and a love so complete, it’s difficult for us to even imagine.  But thanks to Jesus’ great love for us and His sacrifice, Heaven awaits us, not just for a time, but for all of eternity.  So no matter your circumstances, take heart.  God is still God and Jesus is coming back-for all of us.  Be ready.

Merry Christmas.
