Shepherds at Jesus
We can imagine how frightened the shepherds were when they saw the angels, and how they must have wondered when they heard about the birth of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. But it is easy to understand that they left their sheep and went to Bethlehem. The Gospel tells us the story:

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about." So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told, Luke 2:15-20.
