THEY ARE STILL SINGING

“And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.  And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.  For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.  And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.  And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”

Luke 2:9-14 KJV

The angels sang and rejoiced the day our precious Saviour was born and they are still singing and rejoicing.  You and I should also sing and rejoice every day because God gave Jesus to us to not only be our Saviour, but also to be the dearest Friend we will ever have.  Jesus is a Friend Who will never leave us.

We have something to sing about because we have a Saviour Who loves us so much He died for our sins on a cruel cross and endured pain and agony that you and I will never know.  What a Saviour!  What a Friend, this Jesus of Nazareth!  Are you shouting yet?  Jesus, the Saviour of the world loves you.

One joyous day, Jesus is coming back for us.  When I see Him, I am not going to walk to meet Him like a bride does when she walks down the aisle to be with the man she is marrying.  I am going to run as fast as I can to meet Jesus.  I will fall at His feet and try to tell Him how precious He is and how much I love Him.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus.  I love You, dear Jesus.  I long to see You face to face.  Thank You for dying for my sins.  You are so wonderful and precious to me.
