Note: found this on the internet. It isn't mine.
And it came to pass in tose days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, unto Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

ReplyDeleteThe words from the gospel telling the Christmas story always fill me with such joy! Merry Christmas!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you did the lettering in the first image. The genealogy of Jesus is perfect and so many times the evil one has tried to interfere or break it off, but nothing matches his provision and power!
ReplyDeleteGod's perfect plan, in his timing. Good news that brings great joy! Merry Christmas!
