'And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

Luke 2:7

Jesus comes to us so lowly, so humbly, and – sometimes – there was is room for Him. He loves us long before we could ever love Him back. He calls us faithfully before we ever have a chance to respond. If your heart was the Inn, would there be room? How much room is there in your evening? How much room in your free time? How much room when you're busy? How much room do we leave for Jesus to change what we say and what we do? When we set out to do any task, do we display humility and love? Do we put others before ourselves, therefore putting their interest before our own? This selfless love is shown through Jesus and will always remain the greatest act of mercy towards mankind. We are loved and prized by Majesty!
