Merry Christmas




There is born "to you" a baby! The angel told the shepherds that great tidings of joy were upon them; the savior Christ was born! But what an amazing phrase the angel uses: To you. The baby was born by a woman, the Virgin Mary. How telling that the angel said "to you" and not "to Mary." The baby who would save the world was a gift not just to His parents, but "to you" and "to me." He was born unto us! What an amazing thing to ponder.

***************
And it came to pass, while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were shepherds in the same country abiding in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock. And an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all the people: for there is born to you this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. (Luke 2:6-11 ASV)
