The Church Nativity

the church was all decorated and beautiful with many lights last night

even the Kangaroo and Emu came to see

there was even a tiny baby in the manger

the wise man and the angel stood in awe at the foot of the manger,
 looking at the baby Jesus.

 I am sure I saw him move!

There will be more photos from this very special night, and nativity play and special effort that this church puts on for families at Christmas.

And some more words from my Bible reading notes, With Love to the World tonight:

As his wife succumbed to cancer, C.S.Lewis is reported to have answered the question "why do you pray?"
in this way: "I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time-waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God-it changes me."

Thank you CS Lewis. For being so honest, and open, and writing all your books, and sharing your life and experiences and wisdom with us.
Thank you God for being omnipotent, for sharing your tiny son with us, that he grew and shared his wisdom with us, in his word written in the Bible, God's word.
