A long, long, long time ago, a baby was to be born. Well, this wasn't an ordinary baby. He was the one who would save you and me and the whole world you see! On a chilly evening, the wind was whistling through the trees. Quietness rushed through a sleepy town called Bethlehem; an amazing baby was to be born. The thing was he wasn't born in a hospital - like you and I. His parents were on a long journey home, and they could not find a place to stay, there was no room in any of the town people's homes; no one in the town would allow them to stay with them. They searched and searched, but nobody wanted to help them. Mary was the name of this fantastic unborn child's mother; she was scared and sad because no one wanted to help them. Her husband, his name, was Joseph, he ran everywhere looking for help, and no one would help him. They were both so frightened, cold, and weary. They knew that the child being born was so very special. They knew that he had a big job to do. But first, they must find a place to stay for the night - a place where this precious child could be born. My heart tells me that the mother of this baby must have been so afraid. She was young and loved the baby she was carrying. However, so many would one day hurt her baby. She knew that. The thought must have been so sad for her. However, Mary had a job to do. Because the baby that lived inside her belly, the world needed; he would love the world and save the world. Mary knew that she was chosen by God to carry this unique child. That the plans God had for this baby, was so great! I imagine Mary's heart felt sad at times. Here she was so happy to carry this unique child, and people would hurt him someday! However, this child holds everything the whole world needs. God loved Mary very much, and he knew that the heart of Mary was kind and that she would love and care for this child King. God's gifts to the whole world were to be born on this cold night. He would be born in a stable surrounded by animals. He was not wanted in the town. However, the world needed his love. You see, this child was to be King of all Kings. However, he did not even have a dry place to sleep or even a warm place to be born. However, Mary's heart was so excited to see him. That she knew the world needed him.
