“Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise…” (Matthew 1:18).

Matthew and Luke record the events surrounding the Christmas story. As the birth of Jesus was announced to the Shepherds, Luke records that “…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, good will toward men” (Luke 2:13-14).

Peace is an essential element of the Christmas story. Jesus Himself is called the Prince of Peace – a title describing His mission of reconciliation.

As ambassadors of Christ here on earth, we proclaim this message of reconciliation. There are three ways in Scripture that God seeks to use us to bring peace to a troubled world:
• Peace between men and God
• Peace between man and man
• Peace between self and others

Paul says, “If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men” (Romans 12:18).

“But there are people who just don’t like me. What do I do?”

I would suggest you find out why they don’t like you. If it’s because of your love and commitment to Jesus Christ and your life is a constant rebuke to them, that’s one thing. But if it’s because you have wronged them and never made it right, then that’s something completely different. If it’s because they have detected in you a wrong attitude then you need to ask their forgiveness, and your attitude needs to change.

Are there people that you have wronged and offended and you’ve never made it right? Is there harmony in your home and in your marriage? Have you disciplined your children in anger and never apologized? Have you failed to keep your promises?

Regardless of who was at fault, take the initiative in seeking reconciliation and bring peace to your home and your relationships this Christmas season.
