Day 11: The Shepherd’s visit Jesus

The announcement of Jesus by the angel to the shepherds is one of the most important events in human history. Jesus, the only savior, is now on the scene and has come to bring salvation to all. When God had the greatest news to share, with whom did He share it first? Shepherds had little power or influence, they probably thought of themselves unlikely to hear this news first. These shepherds were amazing, and they began to glorify and praise God! Then, these simple, uneducated shephereds began sharing the goods news that God had become a man!

Read Luke 2:8-20

The angel said to the shepherds, “I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all of the people.”

Q: What was the good news? Why would it bring joy? Does this news bring you joy?

Q: What were the shepherd’s responses upon returning from seeing Jesus?

Q: Are we responding to Jesus the same way, daily, as the shepherds did once they met Him?
