The City of Tears

Luke 2:10,"Then the angel said to them, Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings fo great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of Daivd is a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."

Eternal joy in God can only be fully known in death.

Yet it seems death is harsh and cruel and it can be so sudden. Jesus wept at death.

Great joy comes only to those who know the Saviour. Death has no sting. While it seems harsh and cruel, still the comforting truth, great joy abound and awaits those who trust in Christ.

The City of this world abound in tears for death is a certain route all must take but so is all who are in Christ, who only in death, will meet the Lord in joy.

Christmas made this possible.
