ON “GUESTS AT THE INN”

ON “GUESTS AT THE INN”

What a devoted contribution from Rudolf Otto Wiemer and, I quote; “From the beginning, writers of the Christmas story have been bothered by the inn, with the stable and manger close at hand. That is where we find ourselves: not by the shepherds, whose poverty and simplicity we lack; and not by the wise men, whose watchfulness and decisiveness we lack. We are, at best, guests at the inn. We sleep, we follow our own plans and dreams. Can we be awakened by the angels’ news? That is the question.”
