The innkeeper missed the opportunity of his life! Don't miss yours.

You know, I never really thought about how the innkeeper threw away the opportunity of a lifetime! I hope I never do anything that foolish!
Happy Sunday, Bridget

Good Morning Sally
Thank you for sharing the video and the Innkeeper DID miss his opportunity! I hope you are having a nice Sunday...this last one before Christmas. Hard to imagine we have only a few more days. Did this festive time come quickly for you? I find it just happened and I'm enjoying it so much for that.
Have a great day.

Good Morning Sally,

I too never gave much thought about the inn keeper, perhaps once he saw the Christ child he was sorry. I enjoyed the video.

Christmas Blessings,
Kathi :)

Cute cartoon. I always start smiling before I see your post. I know it will make me smile so I might as well go ahead and start smiling.
The link you put on Spiritual Sundays takes you to your Tuesday post. If you want to enter a new link I'll delete the first one.
Have a blessed Christmas.

Hi Sally,
Great post! I believe that Innkeeper lost out on a great blessing. But then again, as the scripture says, our Lord was meant to be born in a humble place. He wanted to identify with us, and so He has in all the ways that count. Praise Him!

CHRISTmas blessings,
Sandi

Hi Sally, I didn't fall asleep in Church today it was so wonderful. We were in church from 10:00 am until almost 1:00pm. Children's play, the youth group drama presentation and then a wonderful service. Lol. I have to say this is a first. Then to lunch in town a little shopping and home just now. Now, I need a nap.

Thank you for your comment on the nativity. I like your joke and the U-tube thing was very enjoyable. A good message too.

Have a great Sunday.

Christmas hugs...Jeanne

Afternoon, Sweet Smiling One! Cute cartoon and I agree with others on this, I didn't even think that the inn keeper really missed an opportunity! I certainly don't want to miss God! I want to calm down and be still so I can hear Him speaking to me. Now that video! Awesome! If we could have those stethoscopes in church (probably all wouldn't being singing the Hallelujah Chorus, but most would) - we could say 1 - 2 - 3- go~ and we'd make some beautiful music to God! I loved that!
Have a beautiful, blessed Christmas Sally!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

Hi Sal,
Just dropping in to wish you a Merry Christmas.

Hmm, this is thought-provoking...the innkeeper was not aware of Who he could have sheltered inside his dwelling, rather than with the animals in the stable.
