The Nativity

And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths; and laid Him in a manger. Luke 2:7

The nativity is the centerpiece of Christmas.  Here, in a humble manger, the magnitude of God’s love is seen.  Christ came into the world not just for the rich, but for all people.  As we decorate our homes with nativity scenes, let us be ever mindful of the Christ, who humbled Himself to become man.  And not only man, but also babe.  And not only babe, but poor for our sake so that we might know the richness of His glory.  

Blessings, sweet friends, as we are mindful of Christ’s humility, as we follow His example.
