故事摘要

In a world yearning for hope, a miraculous promise unfolded. A young woman named Mary, betrothed to Joseph, received an astonishing angelic message: she would conceive a son by the Holy Spirit, a child to be named Jesus, the long-awaited Savior. Joseph, initially bewildered, was divinely reassured in a dream, accepting his sacred calling to protect this holy family.

As a Roman decree ordered a census, Mary and Joseph embarked on a journey to Bethlehem. With the town bustling, they found no room in the crowded inns. Their only refuge was a humble stable, where, amidst the quiet breath of animals, the Son of God was born. He was laid not in a grand cradle, but in a simple manger, a profound testament to the humility of the King of Kings who came to serve.

That same night, the quiet fields outside Bethlehem erupted with celestial glory. A host of angels appeared to awe-struck shepherds, proclaiming “Good news of great joy!” and announcing the birth of the Messiah. They hurried to the stable, finding the newborn exactly as foretold – a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. His arrival was the dawn of a new era, a beacon of divine light piercing the spiritual darkness, fulfilling ancient prophecies and bringing the promise of peace, salvation, and eternal hope to all humanity. This humble birth marked the moment God’s saving grace entered the world, illuminating every corner with His love.
