Tell

After seeing Him, the shepherds told everyone what had happened & what the angel had said to them about the child. (Lk. 2:17 NLT)

They couldn't contain themselves.  The angels told the shepherds & the shepherds found Him & they wanted everybody to know.  They had seen hope, peace, & love & they knew the world needed that.  Today the world is in need of those very things & now it's up to us to do the job of the shepherds.  We need to be telling the message that Christ brought with Him all of those years ago.  That message is still as powerful today as it was then.  Instead of the babe in the manger, we can now have the Savior in our hearts. He came to save us, so that we might have life more abundantly, &because Heloved us that much.  His message & love changes lives.  He offers hope & peace.  It's up to us to share it.  It's up to us to take Christs message to the world, outside of the church walls to the people who don't know Him.  Who can you tell, who can you contact?  You know someone who needs to hear the message.  What a great time of the year to tell them.
