Hmmm... Had I been one of the multi-million army of God I think I may have wondered just what the heck is HE thinking! After all, they had their chance and were too selfish and greedy to keep out of trouble! (guess that's why I have no halo! haha)
But as far as I know, no angel took my approach. Instead, that one angel...what's his name... Gabriel was excited enough to clue in the public! I can see him now with his hand thrown high in the face of God asking to be the one to appear in the night to launch this far fetched scheme that the Almighty has up his sleeve! "And YOU... Ms. Mary, are the lucky winner of motherhood to the CHRIST!" Ok, I guess that's probably not exactly how it went, but you get the picture.
So, in pondering further I would venture to guess ole Gabriel, Michael and all their croanies were pretty relieved to know there was finally hope for the creation of all creations, mankind. But I'm sure there was a small part of their hearts that was a little confused and quite frankly sorta afraid of the unknown truth of the revelation of their High God. But being angels they all said yes, they will go befor the Christ.
But did they have any idea just how it was going to impact their celestial workforce? That's the part I'm thinking would be smart for God to have not shared right away. Afterall, now that we all have the option to see the truth, accept the truth and share the truth, their responsibilities just grew by an eternity! What was once hopeless and neverending death is now hopeful and everlasting life. That's a lot of upkeep for a long long time!
Plus, making that known and believable in this post-life of Jesus Christ world we live in is easier said than done.
But look around! They are everywhere! In the miracles of modern day medicines and technology that you see with your own eyes, there they are proclaiming The Christ. When a good thing has come from something bad in our society, there they are proclaiming The Christ. When you slam on your brakes in a sea of traffic to barely miss crashing into the vehicle in front of you, there they are proclaiming The Christ. In the tiny moments of life that leave you with a smile which only you understand, there they are... proclaiming The Christ.
I want to notice them more in the little things.. I want to be more like that. I want to be the one with my hand held in the face of God begging him to "pick me, pick me to tell the good news!"
So what do you think? Will He notice and choose me? For some reason... I think He will. And that's the part that makes me a little nervous.
Stay tuned......
