Nestled in the Gospel of Luke, we find in a barn in Bethlehem, the city of David, the most unique and treasured family ever to grace this earth. 

An angel of the Lord appeared to shepherds keeping watch over their flocks at night and announced, "Behold, I bring you good news of great joy. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord!"

Suddenly, a multitude of the heavenly host praised God saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"

When the angels disappeared into the heavens, the shepherds hurried and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger.

And Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.

Beloved, on this countdown to Christmas, ponder in your heart Jesus Christ, the Savior, and all He has done for you.
