CHRISTMAS DAY
NO ROOM AT THE INN?
If only it were now. If only
it were here! If only they were
coming to our house instead of
Bethlehem!
The Living room in our mobile
home can seat about a half dozen
people comfortably. On Christmas
Eve 14 gathered there to celebrate
the occasion!
We dined together, played games
together, and exchanged Christmas
presents with one another.
Love was as thick as honey in
that small room. In fact the only
disagreement evident at our
gathering came as everyone vied
for his or he turn to hold my 4-
month-old grandson. But everyone
got a chance before the evening
came to an end.
We topped things off with
my annual reading of The Polar
Express and a test to make sure
we could all hear the ringing of
the silver bell from Santa's
sleigh. Thankfully we all passed!
Were it now and were it here
you can be sure we would have
made room at our Inn. I guess, in
a sense, that's exactly what we did.
Hope there's plenty of room
for love in your Christmas and that
all your NEWS is good!
