For to Us a Child Is Born
God tells us that he desires to bring peace to us - not just the end of the conflict, but the full flourishing of all things. That's why he sends the Messiah, Jesus Christ, to us. To be a King over us who brings endless boundless peace. God wants to make you whole, but to do it, he has to rule over you. Refusing to let God rule will lead to a self-wrought ruin and darkness that comes from rejecting God's truth. Accepting his rule gives you access to more peace than you could find by ruling yourself. But we can rejoice, God's own zeal will establish his gracious rule.
