- Re-read Luke 2:14
- Pastor Tim pointed out that the angels had it right to give God glory before peace came. Why is this important? (hint: giving God glory is recognizing that he has everything under his control, we can trust him with our lives)
- The second part of the verse says that peace comes to those who have God’s favor. How does one receive God’s favor? Do you feel that you have God’s favor? Why or why not?
- Re-read Gal 4:9-11 and 4:4-7. How do these verses change how you feel about having God’s favor? What is missing if you don’t feel that you are favored by God?
- What areas of your life feel lacking in peace?
- Share and pray for these requests.
