The Little Donkey

A lonely donkey stood in the corner of a humble manger, piled deep with hay. Gathered with strangers ‘n sweet smelling myrrh, not knowing this would be a special day. At this very moment, God held him close to witness the birth of a new kingdom. He looked upon the child in swaddling clothes, and could not possibly know why he’d come. He only knew a great feeling of love as his big brown eyes filled with tears of joy. Proclaimed with a shining star from above, God has given the world his baby boy. To bring hope and forgiveness as we pray, beginning with His birth on Christmas Day.
