Cross Reference - Psalm 139:14

“I will give thanks to Thee for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Thy works, and my soul knows it very well.”

“Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which Thou hast done, and Thy thoughts toward us; there is non to compare with Thee; if I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count.” Psalm 40:5

“And it came about when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds began saying to one another, ‘Let us go straight to Bethlehem then, and see this thing that has happened which the Lord has made known to us.’ And they came in haste and found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the manger. And when they had seen this, they made known the statement which had been told them about this Child.” Luke 2:15-18

Can you imagine being one of those simple shepherds? Seeing and hearing the words of angels announcing the arrival of their Saviour. They took the time and made the effort to travel and search for Him. How amazing it was for them to see the little baby Jesus.

Every day around the world 353,015 babies are born and as many as half die….some are never seen or appreciated. The link embedded in this email puts this in perspective for us. We have the opportunity to share the wonder of eternal life with so many.
