<p>The Christmas story reveals God's answer to our deepest fear - that we're not good enough for Him. When God announced Jesus' birth, He chose shepherds, society's outcasts who were considered unworthy and unclean. This choice demonstrates three powerful truths: we cannot earn God's acceptance, the law shows us our need for a Savior, and we are made right by faith alone. Christianity isn't about religion or performance - it's about relationship through what Jesus has already done. God proved that no one is too far from His reach, too low for His love, or has sinned too greatly for His grace.</p>
