The Angels came to the Shepherds that night to share glad tidings and good news. I can feel the anticipation the angels had as the waited to come share the news. I am sure there was an excitement as the prepared. What wonderful news they brought to the Shepherds that night. As we listen to the Christmas Carols that talk of Christ they share the same glad tidings and good news that the angels brought that night.
As we go through this Christmas season may we find time to listen to these songs and ponder on the message they share. Think about what the news meant to those then who were waiting for the Savior to be born. Think about what the news means to you today. Take time to to go caroling with friends to bring the glad tidings and good news to others, or just gather as friends and family and sing carols. Find time one evening to just sit and listen to the songs that talk of Christ.
"The Angel
embodies a heart that runneth over
with the good tidings and great joy of the season.
The angel is a reminder that the anticipation
of good things to come
should fill our hearts with warmth overflowing."
Emily Freeman A Christ Centered Christmas
