The Stable Boy


Book Description

In the little town of Bethlehem, many years ago, a young boy lived with his mother. They lived in stables throughout the village, finding work with the innkeepers. Although they were poor and had to work hard to survive, the boy's mother had a strong faith in God. But the boy was afraid the coming Messiah she always spoke of would be unable to find them since they traveled from stable to stable. When the boy was just six years old, his mother became sick and passed away. The boy was very sad, and from that day on, he did not speak a word. For the next two years, he wandered the streets of Bethlehem, struggling to carry on. No one knew his name, so he became known simply as the Stable Boy. One evening, the Stable Boy overheard people talking about the Messiah his mother used to tell him about. He fell asleep dreaming of the King coming for him. Would the Messiah really come for The Stable Boy?
