"…but the angel reassured them. 'Don’t be afraid!' he said. 'I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people.'"
Father, Jesus is the best news we can share with others! We praise You for who Jesus is, what He has done, and for what He will do when He comes again. As the angel reassured the shepards not to be afraid, bring that same peace and stillness to the people of Istanbul. May they not be afraid of what others will think or say when they choose to seek after Jesus. Fill their hearts with courage and joy as they speak the truth of the Messiah's birth to all who will listen.
