Silent Night

A popular Christmas carol by Franz Gruber. In Luke 2, we read of the account where the shepherds witness a great host of angels declaring and praising the birth of Jesus (Luke 2:11-14). And they decided to visit baby Jesus in the town of Bethlehem, acting as His witness to others when they had seen Him, just as the angel had said (Luke 2:17-18)

It is interesting to see how the shepherds reacted after seeing Jesus, as the angel had told them (Luke 2:20). They returned glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen. Indeed it was a most holy night, and we are reminded that God is to be glorified and praised because He sent Jesus not just to be born on earth, but to die for us and save us from our sins.
