But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Luke 2:10
GOOD NEWS. GREAT JOY. FOR ALL PEOPLE. That statement has power, don’t miss it! What other event can be described this way? Good news, great joy, for ALL people. Truthfully, I can think of very few other stories where this is true: creation, the resurrection, maybe a time or two more, but not many. So, take a second to take that in. Good news, great joy, for all people. What if we lived a life committed to emulating this angel? Committed to proclaiming the good news, the great joy, for ALL people, and tirelessly telling this story of Jesus? I was inspired recently to live a life of shameless audacity. I want to be shamelessly audacious in proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. To provide hope, love, and joy no matter how hard it is to proclaim in the moment. The greatest event in history JUST HAPPENED, the messiah had been born. For ages, the Jews had been waiting for THIS VERY DAY and it was HERE! The savior that was promised to their ancestors for many generations was born on this day, and it was GOOD NEWS. Who have you shared this good news with? Who do you want to share it with? How can it change the way we live our day to day lives? Jesus was born into a world of sin, and he comes to anyone with a heart humble enough to accept him. Your barber, driver, neighbor, co-worker, family, Jesus came for ALL so how amazing is it that we have the opportunity to emulate an angel and share the good news that will cause great joy for all people?!- Lex McGhee
