"Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."
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."
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."
(Luke 2:8-15)
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.
There He is... the newborn King. The Savior.
Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Shhhhh.... I think He's sleeping!)
...with the Shepherds......with the angels...
...with all of heaven and earth...
REJOICE!!
Oops, I'm pretty late for the special season, Jesus, being the season... Nativity always touches me.
