Daily Walk Through the New Testament
June 21
Read Luke 1:78-2:26

Even the shepherds who were the first to hear the announcement were the humblest of means and standing. No wonder Mary pondered in her heart. It seemed nothing like what one would suppose. And yet, it was clearly divine.
How often have you looked for the spectacular, and missed the significant?
