Loving Care

This is the stable, shelter so bare; Cattle and oxen first welcomed him [Jesus] there (Children’s Songbook, pages 52–53).

My name is Jacob Nicholas Watson. I am nine years old. This is my horse, Spartacus. He lives in a stall. Jesus Christ was born in a stable and laid in a manger. He was gentle and kind, even to the animals. They must have been with Him at His birth. I try to be like Jesus Christ by taking good care of my animals.
