Have you ever wondered what angels do with their time? No? I tend to get off on angels because I am aware of my guardian angels working overtime. When I think of all the times I have come within a hair’s breath of disaster I grow thankful.
At Christmas we think of them fulfilling their main assignment, delivering messages.
(Luk 2:10 KJV) And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.You can also find an angel delivering announcements to Zechariah and Mary. For Joseph it was a dream. We don’t know for sure how God communicated with the wise men. Keep in mind that the word “angel” is a title not a name. It literally means messenger. In this case there are no individual names.
So we have the angel and later the heavenly host delivering celestial e-mails to the shephereds. We think of the Holy Spirit speaking to us or breathing life in the scripture. It is possible that the angels might also have something to say to us this season. Perhaps they will join the choir and make a Christmas program extra powerul.
Keep listening. You don’t want to miss the celebration.
Merry Christmas.
