And she gave birth to
her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger,
because there was no room for them in the inn.
In the same region there were some shepherds
staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood
before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were
terribly frightened. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I
bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for
today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign for
you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
And
suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host
praising God and saying, "Glory
to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom He is
pleased." -- Luke 2:7-14
SIMPLY: thank you
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cindy. Just the simple, beautiful Christmas story.
DeleteA beautiful story for any time of year made all the more special because Christendom pauses at Christmas to reflect on it. The sign is with us always.
