Luke 2:16-20(NIV)
16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and
the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him,
they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and
all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But
Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The
shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they
had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
The shepherds reaction to baby Jesus is exactly what our
reaction will be when we see the returning Jesus: we will glorify and praise
God for all the things we see and hear and will find that they are just as God
has promised them to us. Since God kept his word in the first coming of Jesus,
we can be assured that he will do it with the Second Coming of Jesus!
Thought for today:
How do I respond when I see or feel the things of God?
