Jesus came into the world to save all kinds of people. Rich or poor, black or white, educated or illiterate, sophisticated or ordinary or anyone in between. Only two groups of people gathered at God’s invitation to pay homage when He was born. One was the shepherds, lowly, uneducated, unsophisticated. The other was the wise men, intellectuals, from another race and country, wealthy, respected, the two groups could hardly have been more different. God brought both groups to Bethlehem one by an angelic announcement, one by the appearance of a miraculous star, and by bringing both, God was telling us that Jesus is the Savior for everyone. Every person stands in need of His forgiveness and new life and every person can know it, if he or she only repents and makes that journey to the Christ of Christmas. No matter who you are in the eyes of others, you need Christ. And no matter what you have done, He loves you and stands ready to welcome you. (Ps. 103:1-4) Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies
