| The Queen’s Birthday |
“And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn”
(Luke 2:7). |
| The 24th of May is celebrated as the Queen’s birthday in the British Commonwealth, which includes Canada where I live. It is a statutory holiday by law. It was actually Queen Victoria’s birthday, and when I was a child we used to chant a little rhyme that went like this: |
| The 2nd of May is the Queen’s Birthday, |
| If you don’t give us a holiday we’ll all run away. |
| Queen Victoria died in 1901, but she is still honored on her special day 113 years later. |
But what about the Lord Jesus? Sad to say there is still room for Him in the hearts of men and women in this Christ-rejecting world. I trust there are none of our readers like that. God’s desire is “that all men should honor the Son” (John 5:23). Do you know Him as Saviour
and Lord? |
