“…because there was no room for them in the
inn.” Lk 2:27
Weigh
these words that were levied towards Joseph, Mary and Christ. These words carry
their meaning to many people in many places but, no room for Christ? Joseph had nothing to offer for accommodations,
no means for consideration by others. They
had Christ amongst them, but that was not enough to be considered. How much are we like the people of Bethlehem
today, no room for Christ? Yet He’s no longer a child, having delivered us from
sin, conquered death and He’s coming again. Christ speaks to us “Verily I say unto you, inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of
these, ye did it to me.” (Mt 25:45) Are
we void of time for Christ and those around us who are hurting and hopeless in
their need for the love of God? Is the “Inn” of your heart full, is it unaware or
too occupied for consideration of those around you in need, in turning such
away, you turn Christ away! Is your
heart so full with life you miss His knock and the opportunity to hear from Him
and the needs of others? (Rev 3:20) Don’t
be a part-time Christian, in need of a full-time God.
Be
wary of the bareness of a busy life.
