The news of the Savior’s birth didn’t go first to kings or priests—it came to shepherds in the fields in the most unexpected way. Shepherds working a lowly job and who, probably felt forgotten by God and the community of believers. Isaiah reminds us that even the weary can soar like eagles when their hope is in the Lord. These unremarkable men were the first to hear the remarkable news: Hope had come, not for the elite, but for the ordinary. God’s kingdom arrives where we least expect it—but always where it's needed most and that is our Thread of Hope.
