Christmas Donkey
With kind eyes and a humble stance, the Christmas Donkey peeks from the stable, framed in garland and berries. His presence recalls the journey of Mary and Joseph, faithfully carried by such a creature on the long road to Bethlehem. Steadfast and unassuming, the donkey becomes a symbol of service, endurance, and the quiet strength God so often uses to fulfill His purposes.
"Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey." — Zechariah 9:9
The Christmas Donkey reminds us that even the lowliest of animals played a role in the greatest story ever told. God’s glory often enters through humility, and His love is carried on the backs of the simple and the faithful.
"In God’s story, even the humble bearers become part of heaven’s glory."
