O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM The song, “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” is about how Jesus was born in this small town of Bethlehem. He was a small child with a very big and amazing future ahead of Him. Jesus is called the “everlasting light” of the world because He is above all. His mother’s name was Mary, and she was very devoted to God. She was the most blessed woman ever because she was given the gift of carrying God’s Son. All the angels and the stars gave glory to God for the birth of His One and only Son. God sent His Son to this earth to save us, His people. We are to come to Him and give our lives over to Him. We are also supposed to ask for His forgiveness for all of our sins. Jesus is our Lord and Savior, and we need to come to Him this day. We need to be like the shepherds and the wise men. The shepherds left their jobs and families to go and see the most important person in the entire world. The wise men came from a place that was really far away, and brought everything they had to see the most wonderful miracle ever. They also came to Him to give Him everything they had because He is the only One who deserves everything. We need to leave our jobs and families and give everything we have to Him. He is our salvation, and He is the only One we need, for without Him, we can do absolutely nothing at all. As it says in the Bible, anything that is impossible is possible with God. He needs to be our all in all this day because He is the best thing we could ever ask for. ~ Heather Barden |
