10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; 11 for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is [a]Christ the Lord. Luke 2:10-11New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Remember?
Remember that special day?
You know the one when the Christ Child was born…
We read about it in our bible…
A baby was wrapped in swaddling clothes, and He lay in a bed of straw they called it a manger.
They stayed inside a barn because the inn was full…
Of course his mom and dad were there
And some shepherd’s from a nearby field came to see him too
Oh yeah and angels came, they said, Behold we bring you wonderful news of peace and goodwill to all men…
Yep that’s right the Savior was born…
Remember now?
OK great…
Now do you remember when that same Christ child came to live in another very special place?
That place within your heart?
Mom and dad were there, and I was there too…
You were six or seven and the pastor said that the angels are rejoicing because you asked Jesus to come into your heart…
There were others who did the same thing that day…
Remember?
Remember how you cried and then got so happy…you wanted to tell everyone the good news…
Peace, and goodwill had come…
Great Joy filled the room of your heart…I’ll never forget that day!
What?
Oh yeah, he’s still filling hearts today…but there are many who will leave him in the barn…
Is there room in your heart for the savior?
No, well just ask Him in, He will fill you with great peace, joy and goodwill…
Then you will have a day to remember, always…
