Angels were Sent

Robin Sykes

As shepherds watched their flocks, The Lord sent angles to the earth. They told the shepherds, Do not fear, And announced the Christ Child’s birth. The Child was dressed in swadding clothes And in a manger He did lay. And then, the glory of the Lord Did light the angels’ way. Peace on earth! Good will to men! Angelic hosts did sweetly sing. Go, see the Child in Bethlehem. He’s the Savior and the King. They came with haste to see Him-Mary, Joseph, and the Babe they found In a bed of hay and straw And animals gathering ’round. The shepherds left and made known, Praising God, having seen the Holy One. And told what the angles said… Christ is born unto us, a Son.

Born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida, I am the youngest of eight siblings. My father has passed away, but my parents, both everyday people and U.S. Army veterans, instilled strong values in me. I graduated from Jean Ribault Senior High School and went on to earn my bachelor's degree in English with an emphasis in professional writing, graduating cum laude from Grand Canyon University. Currently, I am an Avon independent sales ambassador. I am a Christian, a proud Florida girl, and an encourager. As a millennial, blogger, sports fan, foodie, disabled woman, ambivert, and everyday woman, I embrace my multifaceted identity. I live in Jacksonville with my mom, cherishing my roots and the vibrant community that shapes me.
