Nativity Simplicity
Once upon a time, in a far away land...
...Mary and Joseph traveled to Bethlehem to bring forth the Son, wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in the manger, for there was no room in the Inn.
Shepherds were abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
The angel of the Lord came upon them and brought good tidings of great joy and the glory of the Lord shone around about them. It was declared, "Unto you is born this day a Savior which is Christ the Lord."
The multitude of heavenly hosts praised God and shouted, "Glory to God in the Highest, Peace on Earth, Good will toward all men. "
The wise men saw the star in the East; rejoiced with exceeding great joy; fell down and worshipped Him; and presented Him with gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Luke 2: 1-20 & Matthew 2: 9, 10
Mary Pondered!
Joseph Beamed!
Angels Harkened!
Shepherds Quaked!
Kings Worshipped!
We're Redeemed!
BLESSINGS: Now, He sits on the right hand of God, pondering His return for His beloved, beaming with anticipation; when he harkens, we will quake, fall and worship Him. For His redemption draweth nigh!
It's not the end of the story, but...
The Beginning

If you want space between the text and the pictures (like the parts about mary and joseph, the shepherds, and the angels, all you have to do is write
after the words. A space will magically appear!
But maybe you already knew that...
