Mama loved to see gifts joyfully received. In the same way, God delights in our gratitude for His grace. No story reveals this like the shepherds in Luke 2. These unlikely converts were first to hear of Jesus’ birth. No one gave them anything. But God gave them everything. Their joy is the joy of the hopeless finding hope. Do you have that joy? God offers a great gift. Will you receive it? Listen as we examine Luke 2 and hear of a “great joy will be for all the people.”
