Shepherd finds Jesus for Comfort

A cute and true story: In December 2009, This homeless dog (German Shepherd) was found sleeping in Jesus’ manger. The outdoor Nativity was located at the central square of Criciuma, a small town in Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil.

The dog was  apparently looking for a comfortable, protected place to sleep and chose baby Jesus as his comfort.  May we all have the good sense of this shepherd dog to seek out Jesus for comfort and curl up in his lap from time to  time.
