NO ROOM AT THE INN
Have We Made Room For Jesus? This is such a busy time … We’re running to and fro! We’ve got special invitations stacked! A-partying we must go! With our things to do list growing, Our time just slips away… All this shopping, wrapping, baking Takes the best part of our day! And we must make room for company… Those out- of- towner guest. Fresh linens, towels, fancy soaps… Supplying all the best. But have we made room for Jesus? Is He invited, too? After all, this is His party… Leaving Him out wouldn’t do! There wasn’t room in Bethlehem… He wasn’t asked to stay. Insensitive inn keeper hearts Are still turning Him away. He’ll respond to invitation But won’t push to be included For never has the Son of God Ever forcibly intruded Christmas bells are ringing out Announcements of His birth. Have we made room for Jesus? Or is this just a time of mirth? Doris Jacobs-Covington Christmas 2012 ~~Dedicated to Erlene~~ Luke 2:7 And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. |
