Good behavior during the day, particularly with our younger children, meant they could place a larger handful of hay in the manger. It was Lisa’s idea to create some excitement as we grew closer to Christmas but more importantly to teach them the purpose of Advent. Our children have loved it and looked forward to placing the hay in the manger before leaving for school daily. Each Christmas morning before any gifts are opened, the greatest reward is the arrival of baby Jesus….our baby Jesus and placing Him in the manger.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger. Luke 2:11-12
Glorify God & Enjoy Him Forever!
