Watching sheep is very boring. All you have to do is make sure they don't wander off. I think the other shepherds thought that too, because we were all about to fall asleep. Suddenly, a great flash of light came out of the sky and a great angel came out of the light.
"Oh my goodness," I said. I was afraid, and so were the shepherds.
The angel said, "Do not be afraid, for behold a bring you good tidings of great joy that will be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a Savoir, which is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign to you," he pointed at a star, "You will find a baby, wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
Suddenly, all these angels came out of the sky, praising God and singing," Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth, peace, good will on whom His favor rests.
When the angels left and gone into heaven, Peter said, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, that the Lord has told us about." All the other shepherd agreed. I looked at the star. This is going to be a long walk.
Phineas-Ferb and I slowly walked into the stable. The girl noticed us, she was about a year younger than Candace. He husband was about as old as Candace, too
"My name is Mary, and this is my husband, Joseph," Mary said.
"My name is Ferb, and this is my brother, Phineas," Ferb said.
"Good tidings," Mary and Joseph said.
"Good tidings," Ferb and I said back.
"If you don't mind me asking, when will the baby come?" Ferb asked.
"Jesus should be here any minute." Mary said.
What?! Mary is pregnant?! With Jesus?! Jesus Christ, the son of God?!
Just then, Mary started going into labor. Joseph ran out to get her some blankets while he left me and Ferb to watch the whole thing. I'll spare you the details, just if this wasn't the Son of God, I probably would have puked. Joseph mane back with the blanket and Mary wrapped Jesus up. She looked over at me.
"Would you like to hold Him?" she asked, "Your brother may hold him, too." She handed Him to me and I took Him in my arms. I felt I went limp. I couldn't think straight, but I wanted to say something. I am ashamed of myself, for all hi said was "hi".
Ferb-I can't believe all Phineas said was "hi" not even "Hello" or "Good tidings" just "hi". Phineas handed Jesus to me and it felt like all the energy rushed out of me. I could barely remember my own name. I looked down into Jesus' eyes. I said the first thing that came to mind.
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul: He guides me in paths of righteousness for his namesake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
I finished and handed Jesus back to Mary, who put Him in the manger. I looked over at Phineas, and I could tell we were both thinking the same thing. I can't believe I just held and talked to Jesus Christ.
