The Message of the Shepherds
When the angels had left them and
gone into heaven, the shepherds said
to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem
and see this thing that has happened,
which the Lord has told us about.”—Luke 2:15 (NIV)
IN THE ABOVE Scripture, the shepherds weren’t satisfied merely to be told about the Savior’s birth. They wanted to experience Him for themselves. Like the shepherds—don’t just hear about Jesus, arise and seek Him yourself. Search for Him until you stand in His Presence, and then when you have found Him, tell others about your discovery.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of Your Son, and the message of love that He brought to the world.

Giving Thanks for God’s Love
Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.—Joel 2:13 (NIV)
