Glory to God in the Highest!
by Max Lucado
“Glory to God in the highest!” Luke 2:14 (NKJV)
For the shepherds it wasn't enough to see the angels.
You'd think it would have been. Night sky shattered with light. Stillness erupting with song. Simple shepherds roused from their sleep and raised to their feet by a choir of angels: "Glory to God in the highest!" Never had these men seen such splendor.
But it wasn't enough to see the angels. The shepherds wanted to see the
one who sent the angels.
