I watched a Christmas movie the other day where a children's pageant was being played out. I was reminded of my own children in the days when they were shepherds, wise men and, yes, angels (oh they were so cute!! :) One time as the procession was making their ascent on the stairs to the stage, the narrator proclaimed "and the wise men fell down before the babe and worshipped Him." One wise man did just that...he tripped and fell flat down before the manger. The crowd loved it, although it wasn't planned :) (I think that was the moment my son decided he had acting ability :)
Can you imagine the scene....the shepherds, the wise men, bowing down before the King of kings? All humanity worshipping before the greatest baby ever born?

What happened to the baby?
Revelation 5...
"...Do not weep! See the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals. Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne..."
"You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with our blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."
"Then I looked and heard the voice of many nagels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and elders. In a loud voice they sang...
"Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!"
Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing:
"To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!"
The four living creatures said, "AMEN" and the elders fell down and worshipped."
THAT is what happend to the baby :)
