JANUARY 9, Luke 2:15-35 

The shepherds finally found the manger where Jesus was born. With the song of the angels ringing in their ears and the joy of hearing that the Saviour was born, they fell on their knees to worship Jesus. Filled with great joy, they will remember this night long after the visit.

When they returned home, they did not keep this quiet, but burst out telling everyone of the wonderful news of the Saviour’s birth! Moreover, they have seen the baby Jesus – and what a great privilege that must have been!

These shepherds, having seen Jesus, just had to tell others about Jesus. How about you? Do you want to tell others about Jesus too?

Imagine that you have discovered the most wonderful game or toy which you know would benefit your loved ones and friends. Would you not want to share that with them? Of course! What more when you know such a great Lord as Jesus!

If you are saved, you would have done some of these things. Put a tick if you do.

Thought: Blessed are those who believe in Jesus.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, give me courage and great joy in telling others about Jesus. Sometimes it is not easy, and I am afraid that people may laugh at me. But give me courage, Heavenly Father, that I will be brave enough to share this good news with the people You have placed in my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
