10 Days of Christmas Devotional - God Places Tremendous Value On the Lowly and the Lost

Luke 2:8-9 says, And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear.


Who were the first to hear publicly about the Christ child's birth? The Roman ruler? The religious establishment? Nope! Dudes keeping sheep. God loves the outcasts and the low. We all struggle at times with feelings of low self worth.  We look at the world around us and feel at the bottom of the pile.  But fear not!!  You are in the right place to have God reach down and use you for a powerful purpose!  That's His way.
