Aurora Borealis

One of the spectacular sights in the winter night skies in the north is the northern lights or aurora borealis.  When we lived in the north we would occasionally see the wonder of theses lights as they danced across the sky.  Sometimes they were filled with colour.  We would stop what we were doing just to watch the wonder of the moment.
As spectacular as the northern lights may they are nothing compared to what the shepherds experienced on that first Christmas night.  That night the angels showed up.  Now we often see pictures of one or two angels but I imagine that the sky was full of angels.  This was the greatest event in the history of this planet and I know that none of the angels would miss it.  If the northern lights are an spectacular sight can you imagine the sky filled with angels.  What a moment.  What a scene.
