At once the angel was joined by a huge angelic choir singing God’s praises:
Glory to God in the heavenly heights,
Peace to all men and women on earth who please him.
Luke 2:8 - 12
Good news came through a fearful experience.
Who would not have shared the shepherds' terror
at this supernatural, other-worldly, incomprehensible occurrence?
Not just one random angel, either,
but a whole bunch of them. Terrifyingly bright and fearsomely beautiful.
Not just one random angel, either,

Fear. Of the unknown.
How often do I fear because I do not know?
I do not know the facts.
I do not know how someone feels.
I do not know God loves me so much that I have no need to fear even when I Do Not Know.
Because He loves me.
Look up to heaven.
Hear the angels' joyful message.
Share in the wonder at God's glory.
Experience His peace.
Accept the Gift.
Be not afraid.
Do not fear.
All that is needed
Is Knowledge of the
One True Saviour.
Accept His Gift.
