—Luke 2:8-20

Shepherds lived in the fields with their sheep. Others in society did not think much of them or give them much esteem. Yet God chose to reveal His Son to and through them. His angels announced the birth of the Savior to this one group that they might know and witness what had happened. They went and saw the baby for themselves and then told everyone about it. Worldly wisdom would say the angels should have given their message to someone more important or with more contacts. But that is not how God works. We never know who He may call to be His witness or share His message.
