Today's Good News

DECEMBER 13 – UNLIKELY

12/13 Luke 2:8-11
That night some shepherds were in the fields outside the village, guarding their flocks of sheep. 9 Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord’s glory surrounded them. They were terribly frightened, 10 but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news of great joy for everyone! 11 The Savior — yes, the Messiah, the Lord — has been born tonight in Bethlehem, the city of David!
UNLIKELY
Bethlehem is an unlikely place for the king of the Universe to be born. It is in a way like us. Most of us are ordinary to a fault. I am certainly not exemplary in any way. Yet the Lord can use any one of us to accomplish His will. TODAY I want to be used by the Lord to accomplish His purpose. Use me Lord. I will not be afraid.
