Gods greatest gift was announced... to shepherds working the night shift. Shepherds were viewed as downtrodden, despised and dishonorable. Outcasts of Israel. Yet shepherds were highly regarded for one specialty... keeping watch over their flocks. What can we glean from this? What does this mean? Why is this important to know? God was making a Statement... my Son comes to keep watch. To protect. To heal. To love. God sent His greatest gift to be a Shepherd.
