Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!
Would We Know?
If we had been the shepherds one night long ago,
I wonder if we’d recognize the star or if we’d know
the reason for His birth and if we’d really go
to worship at the manger. I wonder, would we know?
Is it really any different than if Jesus came today?
I wonder, would we recognize His face in any way?
Or would we turn away from Him
not knowing what to say?
If Jesus walked among us in our hurried, busy pace,
I wonder if this stranger would really find a place?
Rebecca Barlow Jordan
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
Give it some thought.
