Chapter 10: “Have you seen Him?”
Jesus the Baby
"A Baby!" On a night like this! With all this crowd of people about! Huh, huh, huh, goodness gracious me! All I've got is one of the stables at the back. I believe there's one at the end there pretty clean. That's all I've got, young fella. I'm sorry, but that's all. You're just lucky I didn't think of the stable earlier for some of the others. This is a mess, this census, and no mistake." So the innkeeper of Bethlehem thought - but God had the situation in His control.
