This is For All The Lonely People - Plundering The Kingdom Of Darkness

Christmas can be a lonely time. Maybe it brings painful memories from when you were young, or maybe the years have changed the numbers at family gatherings and it hurts to remember. It helps when we understand the essence of the Christmas story, that Jesus came for people just like us who are lonely, lowly, and forgotten. His first bed was an animal’s food trough, and He spent His first night sleeping with the animals in the cold because nobody could make room for Him where the important people slept. Jesus’ humble beginnings are a message to us. There in Bethlehem on the night the angels sang to the shepherds, Jesus reached low, low enough to touch all the lonely, lowly, and forgotten. Low enough to touch you right now, whispering that you have not been forgotten.
