As a follow-up to my morning wake up today, this is a very powerful and memorable moment from our “Christmas On The Trail Chuckwagon Dinner Show.” I wrote this Cowboy Christmas Prayer for our chuckwagon cook, and comedian, Joe Baker, to deliver by the campfire, set to the instrumental veryof thoguys playing Away In A Manger. Just before delivering the prayer, Joe would deliver the verse from Luke 2:7 - “And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.” It was particularly meaningful for me, because he used Dad’s preaching Bible, which I still have in my office to this day, and the prayer was a way to share the Gospel, while fulfilling the heart of one of Dad’s most memorable Christmas sermons , “Don’t Leave The Baby In The Manger.” I hope it blesses you guys this Christmas season!
