I just read a story about a schoolteacher in England supervised the construction of a manger scene in a corner of her classroom by her students. The students were excited and enthusiastic as they set up the little barn and covered the floor with real straw and then arranged all the figures of Mary and Joseph and the shepherds and the Wise Men and all the animals. The students had all the characters facing the little crib in which the tiny Infant Jesus lay.

One little boy just couldn't get enough. He was absolutely enthralled. He kept returning to it, and each time stood there completely engrossed but wearing a puzzled expression on his face. The teacher noticed him and asked, "Is anything wrong? Do you have a question? What would you like to know?"

With his eyes still glued to the tiny manger scene, the boy said slowly, "What I'd like to know is, it's so small, how does God fit in?"
