God loves to use ordinary, everyday people to do participate in his supernatural and epic story. Time and again through the Scripture, God calls the unlikely or broken to join him in his redemptive plan. Whether an old man like Abraham or a shepherd boy like David, God chooses people others wouldn’t. He does this for several reasons but mostly to prove his power and glory. Within expressing his supremacy and might, God also teaches us important truths about himself and us through wonderfully ordinary people. The Christmas narrative is no different. God used the foreign nearby neighbors and marginalized as supporting characters when he brought his Son into the world to save us all. Here are six examples of why God chose wonderfully ordinary people during Christmas. Photo Credit: ©Unsplash/Nick Fewings
