When Christ came, the Messiah wasn’t the conquering hero that the Jews believed He to be.  He came as a servant, humbly, and lowered himself to be like us.   Hardly the stuff of hero worship that had existed for many years.  But Christ gave us something that was unexpected.  Peace.  While there will always be wars and rumors of wars, peace can come to those who put their faith in Him.

Luke 2:8-14
