Advent 2017 - Day 23

Day 23 The Innkeeper

Reading: Luke 2:3

It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good. This Census will be good for business I'm telling you! We'll have every bed filled, and people need food and drink too of course. That's going to help pay those taxes. Though it's a headache as well - there's only so much room, and there's always those who don't have a plan when they arrive. "What if someone's really desperate?" the wife asked. No skin off my nose. Not my problem. "Tell you what," I said to her, "if they're really desperate - there's always the stable...." and I laughed!


Prayer Point: Pray for those - paid or voluntary - who will be working on Christmas Day.
