Day 8 - Seeking Lodging

Joseph went from door to door looking for a place to spend the night. “No room,” they told him again and again. The inns were full, and no one seemed to notice the young couple’s urgency. It was a moment of anguish and humility. The King of Kings was about to be born, but the world had no bed for Him. Finally, someone pointed them to a humble place, a stable where animals were kept. Joseph and Mary accepted this poor shelter with gratitude, knowing that God’s wealth is not found in palaces, but in love.
