Hurry Shepherds Run.

Hurry Shepherds run to the manger, leave your sheep and come.This is a line from the Christmas song, Hurry Shepherds Run. When you think about it, to a shepherd his herd is his most prized possession. The question is would you and I be willing to leave our most prized possession and go see a baby? Leaving our things wide open to the public; where anyone could take it? I know I would be hesitant. Matthew 6:19 talks about how we should store up our treasures in heaven. I think the shepherds are a great role models for us; they left to follow the angels. They had great faith. Do we store up our treasures on earth; or do we take a leap of faith and wait to see what the Lord has for us.

I love snow! Its fluffy and white and usually clean. If you don't like snow, I feel very sorry for you! When I think of snow I think of how much God cares for the little things as well as the big things. All the snowflakes are different, special, and unique. Just like people, we are also uniquely created, we are made in the very image of God. The song says, Red, and Yellow, Black, and White, they are precious in His sight, Jesus loves the little children of the world! In Matt.6:26 it talks about how Jesus cares for Birds, and then it asks a question; Are we not more valuable then the Birds? And the answer is clear! Jesus cares so much about us, he was willing to come down to earth, die on a cross for you and conquer death! He must care for us! He wants us to spend eternity with Him! Is there any better news in the world? I think not! So when you watch the snow, think about how much He cares for you.
