A poor woodcutter and his family took in a hungry child on Christmas Eve, giving them food and shelter, even though they did not have much. In the morning, the child was revealed to be the Christ Child and gifted the family with a Christmas tree that would bear fruit to provide for them, even in winter. The moral of the story is that helping those in need is akin to helping Jesus himself.

woodcutter and his family. On Christmas Eve, as they shared a small dinner, they heard a knock at the door. A pale and hungry child stood there in torn clothes. Even though they didn't have much, the kind woodcutter invited the child in for a meal and a bed. That night, the woodcutter and his family thanked God for their warm and safe home. In the morning, they were surprised by beautiful singing. Looking out the window, they saw the once ragged child now surrounded by angels, singing a lovely Christmas carol. The child, now dressed in a gorgeous robe and glowing with light, revealed, "I am the Christ Child. Your kindness is my gift to you." The Christ Child then broke a branch from a small Christmas tree, planted it, and said, "From this day on, this tree shall bear fruit at Christmas, bringing you a lot of food even in the cold winter." As they watched, the tree grew into a beautiful tree covered with golden apples and silver nuts. From that day forward, the once-poor family never starved again. Though we know this isn't a real story, The main thing to say is : helping a child in need is like helping Jesus himself.
