Season's Reason

Tonight millions who normally do not worship will attend services across the land. We all go this night for our own reasons. Some out habit, some for the music, some to please loved ones, some for the peace in the hectic storm, and some to renew our faith.

A birth in an animal shed in the middle of the night. The engaged couple the only witnesses to the miracle at first. Then came the shepherds. These were working people who witnessed the angelic announcement and responded.

We know others came including foreign magistrate bearing expensive gifts. With the advantage of hindsight, we know Jesus' birth changed the world forever.

What we do with Him will change our lives and our eternity. What shall we do with Him?

'til later
