Jesus Came to Love Us

Christ Is Born, from Luke 2 and Matthew 1

“You cannot stay here,” the man said.

“I have all the people I can take.”

“But where can we sleep?” Joseph asked.

“Mary is going to have a baby.”

The man looked at his animals.

“You may sleep with them,” he said.

“It is the only place I have.”

So Mary and Joseph went to sleep with the animals.

That night Mary had a little baby.

“We will call him Jesus,” Joseph said.

“That is what God said we should do.”

“This baby is God’s Son,” said Mary.

“That is what Goad said.”

“This baby has come to love us,” said Mary and Joseph.

“And he has come to help us love God.”

Questions:

1)  Who was this little baby?

2)  Why did he come?

3)  Does Jesus love you?

4) Do you love Jesus?

Something to think about:

How do you show Jesus that you love him?
