6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
7 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.
Luke 2:6-7 KJV
~~~~~~~~~~~
The King of Kings and Lord of Lords was born
Into this world of sickness, pain and death,
A helpless infant on that chilly morn
Who in His father’s arms took His first breath.
The God of all the universe cried out,
His body cold and naked, small and weak
Until His mother wrapped Him all about
And held Him close and kissed His tiny cheek.
The Savior soon was placed with love and care
Within a manger cleaned and filled with hay.
Had those within the inn been made aware
They might have traded places right away.
The Lamb of God was born with you in mind;
He came so you would not be left behind.
~~~~~~~~~~~
REMEMBER: Every breath Jesus took on this earth He gave to you.

JESUS was wrapped in swaddling clothes twice…. once when born
and the second time in HIS death.
