-Ninety Five- There Is Born To You A Savior

There is Born to You a Savior
Today’s Reading: Luke 2:8-11
Focal Verse: Luke 2:11
“For there is born to you this day in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

When a king, or another dignitary, comes to our country and a dinner is held in his honor, who is invited?  Other important dignitaries, the news media, Hollywood celebrities?  In most instances the common man would not have the opportunity to meet him.
I think it is significant that the first people told about Jesus’ birth were shepherds.  Shepherds didn’t have any political power or worldly importance.  They weren’t in the business of getting out information.  They didn’t have any special appeal to the public.  They were just simple men who spent their time with sheep, and yet God sent angels to them with the good news of His Son’s birth and to tell them how they could find Him.
We are all important in God’s eyes.  He didn’t send His Son just for the rich and the powerful, but also for the poor and weak.  He sent His grace to you.
“…For there is born to you…a Savior.”

If you don’t know Him as your Savior, you can take care of it now.
If you have already been saved, thank God that He saw you as important.
Do you see others that way?  Are you telling them, “For unto you…”?
