There Were No Flocks On The Hills
There were cold, lonely shepherds...
There were those men who had to
Keep their families fed...
It was not sheep....
The sheep abided in the towns...
The sheep abided by Roman Law...
Then a Lamb was born...in a manger...
As all lambs do, that can survive...
In warmth, in nurturing, in caring...
This is the way that the Lamb of God
Survived...

This one is not as simple as it wishes to be. The very essence of Jesus Christ is the work of the good shepherd. TD

Unfortunately, no one that was there at that time is here now to either confirm or refute the story. We must choose what to believe - or not.
