—Luke 2:1-7
by: Patrick London.
The long-awaited promise of God, the coming of our Lord and Savior, was about to take place; and almost no one noticed. Caesar Augustus caused everyone throughout the world to return to his city of origin to be taxed. This put Mary and Joseph on the road to Bethlehem so that the child might be born in the city of David.
We can imagine the number of families displaced by this order. However, our Lord Jesus Christ was more meaningful, and he was about to be born. Brethren, we should be glad.
