Luke 2:7 NKJV
_And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn._
Isn’t it striking—and a little uncomfortable—that the very story we celebrate at Christmas begins with Christ being crowded out?
We decorate our homes, plan our meals, exchange gifts, chase moments, and fill our calendars. None of these things are wrong. But somewhere in the noise, the laughter, and the tradition, we can unknowingly repeat the same mistake made in Bethlehem—celebrating the season while forgetting the Savior.
We make room for food, for family, for fashion, for fun… but is there room for Jesus beyond the carols and the slogans? Not just mentioned, but welcomed. Not just remembered, but honored. Not just celebrated, but centered.
The tragedy of the inn wasn’t hostility—it was busyness. No room didn’t mean no belief; it meant no space.
Merry Christmas to you all—may Christ not just be part of the season, but the heart of it.
