Oh! Holy Night!!
A lowly Bethlehem mother made a straw cradle for her baby that was used for the cows, sheep and goats. Her baby was born and she wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, so soft and silky for her newborn BABY. Her heart moved in motherly instinct as His arms reached up to her and his small hands touched her skin. Her mind was set now. She knew the blessing that lay beside her and what she must do to raise Him up to be fit for heaven again!
Oh Holy Night!
A holy night was never more blessed than this that Christ was born to us among people who did not understand or even recognized what was happening. As this Child grew he was different and learned fast at his parents side. He laboured every day to learn from his fathers carpentry skills, his mothers education in every day affairs, he went to the temple about His Father's business,
His kindness and gratitude spread everywhere as thousands of people listened and ate from his very words. He healed and made the world a better place. He made friends and they followed him, in turn learning his ways of teaching and taking in every Word.
Let There Be Peace on Earth and let it begin with me is the message Jesus wanted us to take to heart in all the little things we do as we touch each other daily.
Joseph ~ the earthly father of the Son Of God wondered how could he be thus, he was just a simple man, just a carpenter but a very important figure in His upbringing in likeness of his heavenly Father, a creator, builder, mentor, giving his life for his family!! All these things God has done for us.
God counted the stars and prepared a choir of angelic host that would announce the birth of His Son, The Shepherds followed the angels to Bethlehem and Magi came from a far country to bless and see the heavenly Babe. 'The babe grew in stature and wisdom'
Acts 1:11 Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?
this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come
in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
The time is near again when we shall see Him, once again we will be the chorus, we will see our families again, and once again there will be no imperfections because Jesus will make it all over again with no mournful tears.
Well people!!! this has been my Christmas journey to share with you. There are a few links to click on in a different color, hope you found them!! There have been many separations this year but thru it all we have learned to cope and turn to Jesus who is the source of all comfort.
