A Shepherd’s Delight Luke 2:15 - 20

Encounter on a hillside A Shepherd’s Delight Encounter on a hillside A despised job at any time A thankless task on the night shift An unexpected visitor An amazing message

Praises in the night A Shepherd’s Delight Heavenly choir Praising God, giving Him all the glory The shepherds response – go and see Go with haste

What did they find and do? A Shepherd’s Delight What did they find and do? Exactly what the angel Had told them They told everyone what had happened They continued praising God

A Shepherd’s Delight Have we heard God’s salvation message? Do we delight in it like the shepherds? Do we hasten to see what God has done? Are we glorifying God for what He has done? Are we telling others the good news that we have received?
