A PRECIOUS ADORABLE BABY

"And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."

Luke 2:7-11
King James Version

We will be celebrating the birthday of Jesus this month. What joy fills my heart to know that my best Friend, Jesus, is going to be remembered and honored.

When Jesus was born there was no room for them so He was born in a manger. We read in the Bible "And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn." Luke 2:7

What is so heartbreaking that there are still some people who have not made room for Jesus in their heart. How that mus hurt Him and break His heart.

John W. Peterson wrote one of the greatest hymns that has ever been written "No

Room".

"No room, only a manger of hay, No room, He is a stranger today, No room, here in His world turned away, No room, no room;

No room, here in the hearts of mankind, No room, no cheery welcome could find, No room, surely the world is blind, No room. Angels, in heaven up yonder, Watch with amazement and wonder To see the Son of the Highest treated so!

No room, only a manger of hay, No room, He is a stranger today, No room, here in His world turned away, No room, no room, no room."

The next time we hug a baby, let's hug the baby for all the hugs Jesus didn't get. I love You, precious Jesus.
