Christmas - A shepherd that very night!

Luke has a vivid story of the very special once in a lifetime event.

"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 2:10-14

I am like a shepherd who heared the glad tidings and good news not from the multitude of angelic host but from the very resurrected Jesus Christ, the Emmanuel.

Are you a shepherd who celebrated the true Christmas?
