Christmas Manger

it is said that this night was the most beautiful night. every star in the sky was shining very bright there was not a cloud in the sky as far as the eye could see. yet! it was foretold to kings of three different nations. that a woman was about to give birth to a child which would save this earth. they packed up everything that they would need and traveled on this beautiful night to see this most glorious sight. when they saw this child with eyes so blue they knew that this was true. for this child had such piercing eyes that it saw through them and touched the sky. his eyes gave the kings such tranquility and a flaming desire in their souls that this child they wanted to hold. as they passed him from one to another they looked upon the blessed mary and joseph kneeling in the hay. that they all began to pray. they blessed this child with more than gold for throughout the world this story would be told. and even till this very day we thank god in every way, for this beautiful child who was born that night. to give all of mankind a belief greater than they and to wash away-the sins that we are born with at birth. they say that the location of the manger was never found that with time it was torn to the ground. yet! people come from all over the world in search of that sacred place. so that they may feel his grace. they feel his presence and know he's there to erase all their fears. yet the search should not be on the ground but thru his love found all around. give of yourself all that you can and he will give you the helping hand

Wonderful way you tell the story Louis. I think we don't need to look for Him as He lives in each one of us when invited. And yes, His presence is felt as you say. This is so special to me dear friend. Thank you for posting!
