He’s not just Lord, He’s love. • The shepherds looked up. • If we stop long enough to stop looking at our circumstances, but look up to Him - everything could change. • Look up = To stop trying to do life on your own or figure it out on your own. • The most important message was given to the shepherds – not the most important of society. • By telling the shepherds first, God shows us there isn’t one person that God didn’t send Jesus for. • No matter what life throws at you - Jesus can bring you joy and hold you through this storm. • We have so much to be thankful for in the perfect gift of Jesus. • The reason why this baby being born was the greatest gift ever given is because it meets our greatest need: forgiveness. So God sent us a savior. • If you’d like to ask Jesus to be the forgiver and leader of your life, you can text the word FOLLOW to 215.999.8575 and our team will be in touch!
