A Silent Moment with Baby Jesus

i was led to write introductions for the carol service we will do tonight....thought they might help someone in experiencing a deeper moment of prayer before a manger this Christmas....go to youtube and look up the songs....enjoy....Blessed, Holy, Life changing Christmas to all!  til next time...

1.  A King is Born, Jesus,  in a small village called Bethlehem...He was The Only One Who could open the doors of Heaven by His Life and Death for a sinner like me....of course the angels came....of course the sound was more marvelous than ever heard on the face of the earth....Heavens' voices worshipping The God of the Universe who became An Infant in a stable...Precious, Lovely, Innocent and Pure as never seen before...what a picture to imagine..what a sound to yearn to hear..That Blessed Night.  "The birthday of a King"

2.  Praises....God inhabits the praises of His People...and the Angels lead in reminding us that to Praise The Living God is a Holy and Righteous  thing.  Sing out everyone Sing out with all your heart and , join the Heavenly Angels in singing "Hark The Herald Angels Sing"

3.  The shepherds instructed by the angel went to adore This Child in a manger....The kings knew that there existed a God far more Greater than they and came to Adore Jesus on bended knee.   Bow ye people...bend your knee to revere and adore The Living God.  Do not be affraid to humble yourself and bow before the God Who holds the sun and moon and stars in His Tiny Hands, Who builds mountains and makes canyons and even oceans obey Him.  Come...let all that has breath adore Jesus in the Manger.  "Gesu Bambino"  

4.  Humility was Jesus' Cloak...and yet all we want is to be honored.  A small town ...Bethlehem by name, a stable with animals all around Him....wrapped in swaddling clothes and in a manger made of hay...Oh the beauty of humility....let us simplify our lives and learn from this Most Holy Scene and example from Our God.  Plz join in singing "O Little Town of Bethlehem" 

5.  The red carpet for Jesus was His Beautiful Pure Mother Mary.  She, ever so young, was picked from all of creation to be the very First Tabernacle to House The One and Only God of the Universe.  Oh what a privilegde for her ..yet she was created from conception to be  extraordinary and very special by God Himself for this very moment.  BLESSED ARE YOU Mary AMONG WOMEN AND BLEST IS THE FRUIT OF THY WOMB JESUS!  One can only imagine the thoughts that went thru her mind as she held Her God in her arms Who also was Her Son!  "Mary did you know"

6.  There is no greater song that can raise the mind and heart of a person to experience in its entirety the Christmas Story than  "O Holy Night".  Sit back, listen and meditate...be raised  to The Throne Room of God in a manger with St. Mary and Good St. Joseph and Baby Jesus to experience for yourself The Divine Night when Christ Our God and Savior was born.
