Almost all people are familiar with the Christmas story prior to Jesus’ birth Joseph could not find a place for he and Mary to stay as all the Inns in Bethlehem had no vacancy. Consequently they ended up in a stable with animals.
What a place for a king to be born in the feeding trough for farm animals but that was the plan all along. When Innkeeper after Innkeeper told the couple there are no rooms there was no choice.
How about you? Do you have ‘room’ in your heart for Christ or do you push Him into a back closet somewhere. Only you can answer that honestly. Maybe you know it is time to reconnect. Perhaps the Bible bothers you so you won’t even read it or maybe you don’t know where to start. My friend Jesus’ has not gone anywhere and He has room for you so why not make room for him.
PRAYER: Christmas is a nice time of year but it is about so much more than what our culture tries to depict. Forgive me Lord if I ever have the wrong attitudes at Christmas. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
