Here Comes Heaven – Our Place
Luke 2:1-20
Often we invite Jesus into our story, asking Him to bless what we are doing. The truth of Christmas is Heaven is interrupting our story. It’s not inviting God to join into my story, but rather God inviting us to enter into His story.
The reason the shepherds are so important in this story is because they most clearly represent us.
-By society’s standards, they were not considered exceptional or significant.
Bottom line:
Christmas means He came for you.
Jesus is the Savior of all, but often we think that means everyone else except me.
The shepherds help us clearly see that Jesus is the Savior of all, even the ordinary, the outsider, the excluded.
Jesus’ divine interruption is truly a divine invitation….
Christmas means He came for you.
