DAILY?READINGS: Nehemiah 13; Zechariah 9-10; Revelation 17

 

Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass.    Luke 2:15


What a remarkable beginning it was! A poor carpenter from Nazareth, a lowly maiden and a crowded Inn in Bethlehem. Angels filled the sky while the Lord of the angels was wrapped in swaddling clothes.  The glory of the Lord came upon them while the Lord of glory slept in His manger bed. Well might we say with the shepherds, “Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass.”    —Jim Flanigan

Who is He in yonder stall, at whose feet the shepherds fall?
Tis the Lord, O wondrous story, tis the Lord, the King of Glory.
At His feet we humbly fall; Crown Him! Crown Him Lord of all!
—B. R. Hanby
