Our Christmas carols are RICH with words.

God and sinners reconciled....

Joy to the world, the Lord has come.....

With angelic host proclaim, Christ is born in Bethlehem....

Glory to the newborn king...

Carols like these explain how these Christmas songs are actually worship songs about how God is with us in Jesus.

Before work this morning I was reading through Peter's writings in the New Testament of the Bible and he explained personal growth like this:

‘’For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter‬ ‭1:5-8‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

If you're looking for joy, they are IN these Christmas carols! Listen in here if you need a lift today!
