Revealed To Shepherds

To certain shepherds under the sky an angel of the Lord spoke from on high “Do not be afraid. In a manger displayed is the babe that God is to magnify.” “To Bethlehem we must go and view this babe with Mary and Joseph too.” So the shepherds arrived and to them described that as the Messiah his time was due. Departing they told of all they had found to those who had come from places around There was wonder and joy at the news of this boy, while Mary treasured the words profound. Luke 2.8-20

Thank you Eve. Perhaps you have seen something I have not. I see a number 3 besides this Limerick of mine.

This is so beautifully written, Lisle! I love that you magnified the true meaning of Christmas; the miraculous birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! :)
