Will Baby Jesus be Stolen this Year?
December 11th, 2009 By Joel Southerland
OK. This story comes from the files of just almost unbelievable. Where has Mayberry gone?
The town of Cheviot, Ohio is taking extra security measures this year to protect baby Jesus [you can read about it here http://bit.ly/8jrEQ8 ]. Several years ago someone stole their baby Jesus from the town’s nativity scene several times. So, to combat that this year, they have installed security cameras to watch over baby Jesus. The article goes on to say that a new industry is being formed in order to protect baby Jesus in public nativity scenes. Some companies even put GPS locators in the dolls in case Jesus gets kidnapped. WOW!
And then I thought – I wish Christians protected Jesus as much at Christmas time. It seems that years ago the Lord Jesus was stolen completely away from the Holiday of Christmas as well. We let Him get “swiped” and we haven’t even gone looking for Him.
This Christmas – find Jesus and put Him in His rightful place!
