Christmas Eve: “Humble Beginnings” - Ken Coneby

The shepherds waiting in the field were at the bottom of society. They were the forgotten, the unknown. They had no reason to believe that they rated a grand announcement of the birth of the Messiah.

Sometimes, we wonder, “is the light of Jesus really here?” The shepherds got their answer in a dramatic fashion, ours may be more understated - but the answer for both of us is the same.

The shepherds remembered that Israel’s greatest king had been a shepherd himself.

A humble beginning doesn’t mean that God doesn’t have grand plans in mind for you.

Luke 2:1-20
