There were two angel friends. One used to sunset pink robes
while other used to adorn himself with sky blue robes. They were known for
singing sweet duets about glory of God and playing on pure silver trumpets.
They often used to lead the orchestra for angels because of their musical
abilities. Once, their orchestra leader Temira gave them and other members of
the angelic orchestra, an exciting news. God had decided to send his Son to
live among His people. They had to prepare a musical jubilee in one of the most
important events in the history of the world. It just had to be the best and
all angels with good voice had to sing and all instruments were to be played
for the event.
Temira asked his orchestra, whether they knew the importance
of the assignment. Trumpeting angel in pink said that he understood that the
Lord want them to appear to the shepherds in the hills of Bethlehem, who had
never seen an angel in their lives and might get afraid. The trumpeting angel
in blue completed the answer by adding that the angels could replace the fear
of the shepherds with joy and love for the Christ Child and then, they could
announce the arrival of the Savior. Temira smiled and nodded contentedly. All
orchestra members felt honored for the opportunity and practiced for perfection
in their roles.
On the day, Christ was born in the stable at Bethlehem and
as planned, the Christmas angels first appeared to the shepherds and the
trumpeting angel friends played the first few notes of the glorious concert in
the dark night sky. Shepherds looked up to the sky and were shocked, surprise
and awed, soon to be filled with amazement and wonder and their hearts brimmed
with humility and thankfulness to God for His glory. The angels then gave the
shepherds the good tidings of great joy and were joined by many other angels
who sang and praise God, filling the skies with the angelic words - "Glory
to god in the highest, and on earth peace, good will to men".
