Saturday, 21 December: 15 When the
angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let
us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord
has made known to us.” 16 And they went with haste
and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger. Luke 2:15-16
Despite all His power and ability to coerce, God, ever
kind and gentle, allows us choice. There is something He loves about a heart
that is drawn to and freely chooses to seek Him. Astounded by the angelic
visitation, the Shepherds dropped all they were doing and hurried off to see
their newborn savior. Perhaps this was why He chose them as recipients of His
big reveal, He knew that they would be lost in the wonder of the moment and
respond accordingly. I wonder, when was the last time that I dropped all that I
was doing to hurry off and find the Lord?
