Luke 2:14 NKJV
"Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"
Ever since the birth of Jesus, God's message from Heaven has been "peace and goodwill" toward humanity.
This all embracing message came first to the ordinary working people.
The angels bypassed the exalted privileged ones and went to those obscure shepherds getting on with their lives.
How like God to appear in the least ostentatious place.
Yet no homeless person can ever say to the Lord "You don't know what it's like to sleep rough!"
No rejected person can ever say that God doesn't understand what it feels like to be excluded.
Jesus purposely chose the hardest path to Salvation so that He could be the Perfect Priest not just sympathising but empathising with us.
Hebrews 4:15-16 NKJV
For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathise with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. [16] Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Come taste of God's Peace and Goodwill sent from Heaven via Jesus.
One day He will come to govern, but first He wants to change our hearts one by one.
