A quote that stood out in God Came Near:
(Regarding the birth of Jesus, and how God sent angels to simple shepherds about such a magnificent ordeal)
God goes to those who have time to hear Him
"In what ways do you hear God? How often do you set aside time just to listen to Him? When does God have your ear?"
Luke 2:9-20
"Note the response of the shepherds"
1. They trusted and believed the message - "went together"
2. They obeyed the command to seek Him out - "with haste"
3. They stopped and admired him - "awe"
4. They left lifting up His name and sharing the news - "praising and glorifying God"
Why is it so hard for us to trust, obey, admire, and praise Him on blind faith? We say the words, but have such a hard time walking the path.
"Those who missed Jesus' birth were simply not looking, or were just too busy". It's so easy to be too busy...
