God's gospel is for the least and the last. For proof, look no further than those who were the first hearers of the gospel proclaimed from heaven. Shepherds in 1st century Palestine were the least likely people to receive a divine message, the last ones anyone would have expected to receive such a blessing. Because of their occupation, and their rough reputation, shepherds were the ones left out in their society, kept at a distance, always on the outside looking in. Ever felt that way? But an angel brought incredible news that they – in fact, all the least and the last – could be brought near to God Himself. "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy…" Luke 2:10 (NKJV)
