God tries to connect to us in diverse ways,in our sleep,our thinking,in the Bible and many other ways like circumstances,trials,difficulties and so on.He tries to speak to us(Job 33:15).Do we make ourselves available,even though He is available.
"And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping
watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and
the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear"
(Luke 2:8-9)
The shepherds were out in the fields tending to their flocks. These humble,
lowly men had jobs that kept them away from their families, and were
essentially nomadic as they followed their flocks around day and night. It was
a lonely, poor life… a humble audience for the very first Christmas carol ever
sung.
But when Jesus was born, the heavens opened wide and the sky was filled with
angels singing with voices beyond imagination. This most beautiful of songs
heard by the lowliest of men and accompanied by the sight of angels filling the
sky had to be indescribable.
As we look in the Bible at
places where God touches Earth – where heavenly beings come and make direct
contact with people – we find that it very often happens in extremely humble
circumstances.
This becomes even clearer as we look at the story of Christmas.
No matter where you are in life, how you live, or what you have, God can
meet you right there. Don’t think you have to clean yourself up first in order
to connect with God. He’s available to you right now. Don’t wait to meet Him!
GOD CAN MEET YOU WHEREVER YOU
ARE TODAY. BE OPEN TO HIS PRESENCE IN YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW!
