"The Bible says the night Jesus was born, God's glorious light surrounded and terrified shepherds guarding their sheep in the fields. Stupefied, they watched and listened as an angel appeared to announce the great event. Then the heavens opened to reveal "a multitude of the heavenly host" - countless angels saying, 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom His favor rests.' What a sight! What a sound! What an overwhelming, matchless, indescribable experience!"

Can you imagine? What if you were there to experience this? I am just in awe of it! How I wish the world could see this today! This is what we should celebrate! This is what Christmas is about! This is what the Bible says:
Luke 2:8-14 (GNT) "There were some shepherds in that part of the country who were spending the night in the fields, taking care of their flocks. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone over them. They were terribly afraid, but the angel said to them, 'Don't be afraid! I am here with good news for you, which will bring great joy to all the people. This very day in David's town your Savior was born - Christ the Lord! And this is what will prove it to you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.' Suddenly a great army of heaven's angels appeared with the angel, singing praises to God: 'Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom He is pleased!' "
