“And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.”
— Luke 2:16-20
“We too must return to our fields and our homes and our offices and our meetings, glorifying and praising. We need to work, but we must do it with a renewed focus and purpose. Sheep need tending now as they did then. Faithful shepherds will always be found at their posts, with Jesus at the center of their lives and hearts because they know and love him.”
