The inn is a haven for weary travelers.  On a certain day long ago there was a woman traveling to Bethlehem with her husband for a census.  She was pregnant and was soon about to deliver.  They went from inn to inn in the busy town and could find no haven in which to rest.  They finally found shelter in a stable and there she gave birth to our Savior, Jesus Christ.  He is our haven.
