Think about it; turning away from God is the exact problem God calls us to pray for and to witness to those very ones who are outside the city gates. Should we not ask God to give us a renewed hope rather than an attitude of ‘what’s the point?’ A broken heart for them rather than a critical spirit?

Anticipation
When the angels were gone, the shepherds made haste to go to Bethlehem. “The King was born in a stable?” “I thought He would be born in a palace.” “I thought the trumpet would sound, but angels are even better!” the shepherds huffed to one another, as they ran to see the Christ child.
