—Luke 2:8-14

Although it is one of the most well-known parts of the Christmas story—an angel appearing from heaven to tell shepherds about the Savior’s birth—how often do we consider the significance of today’s passage? The story of God sharing the good news about His Son’s birth with lowly shepherds and inviting them to come to worship the newborn King, is the story of God’s love for all people. God has chosen to share with each of us (none deserving) the Good News of salvation. And He has chosen to welcome us into His presence to worship Him.
