Narrator 2: Christmas is the story of a Baby—a tiny, crying, cute little Baby. Instead of
diapers, He was wrapped tightly in "swaddling clothes," strips of cloth to keep His limbs
warm and straight. (start music)
Instead of a cradle, He was laid in a manger—a feeding trough for animals. He had no other
place to sleep. Why would God leave the beauty, the peace, and the happiness of heaven to
become a poor, weak, helpless infant? Why would He lay aside the glory of all He was and
take upon Himself the simplicity of a child?
He came to be close to us, to touch us, to become like us so that we could become like Him.
He came because He loved us.
