Journey To A MangerSample

Hey! Unto You...

In the quiet stillness, a group of men spread out on the hard ground. Their eyes adjust to the darkness as they keep watch to protect the sheep. Suddenly, dazzling lights appear and an angel is before them with an amazing proclamation! This is a very familiar part of the Christmas story. Pause for a second to think about it. It is easy to forget how extraordinary it must have been. In fact, it almost sounds like a Hollywood epic! But even screenwriters cannot come up with a story that tops what God can do! Singer Moriah Peters talks about God’s creativity.

Do you have very specific ideas about who God is and how He works? It can become easy to think about God in a certain way. Instead, when we read Scripture and pay close attention, we see God doing amazing things. God is creative, unique, humorous, and “thinks outside the box”. Be awestruck, like the shepherds were, as you see how God is working in the world today!
