Mary, a virgin, was living in Galilee of Nazareth and was engaged to be married to Joseph, a Jewish carpenter. An angel visited her and explained to her that she would conceive a son by the power of the Holy Spirit. She would carry and give birth to this child and she would name him Jesus.
At
first Mary was afraid and troubled by the angel's words. Being a
virgin, Mary questioned the angel, "How will this be?" The angel
explained that the child would be God's own Son and, therefore, "nothing
is impossible with God." Humbled and in awe, Mary believed the angel of
the Lord and rejoiced in God her Savior.
Surely Mary reflected with wonder on the words found in Isaiah 7:14 foretelling this event, "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel." (NIV)

The Birth of Jesus:
While Mary was still engaged to Joseph, she miraculously became pregnant
through the Holy Spirit, as foretold to her by the angel.
When Mary told Joseph she was pregnant, he had every right to feel
disgraced. He knew the child was not his own, and Mary's apparent
unfaithfulness carried a grave social stigma. Joseph not only had the
right to divorce Mary, under Jewish law she could be put to death by
stoning.
Although Joseph's initial reaction was to break
the engagement, the appropriate thing for a righteous man to do, he
treated Mary with extreme kindness. He did not want to cause her further
shame, so he decided to act quietly. But God sent an angel to Joseph in
a dream to verify Mary's story and reassure him that his marriage to
her was God's will. The angel explained that the child within Mary was
conceived by the Holy Spirit, that his name would be Jesus and that he
was the Messiah, God with us.
When Joseph woke from his
dream, he willingly obeyed God and took Mary home to be his wife, in
spite of the public humiliation he would face. Perhaps this noble
quality is one of the reasons God chose him to be the Messiah's earthly
father.
Joseph too must have wondered in awe as he remembered the words found in Isaiah 7:14, "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel." (NIV)

At that time, Caesar Augustus decreed that a census be taken, and every person in the entire Roman world had to go to his own town to register. Joseph, being of the line of David, was required to go to Bethlehem
to register with Mary. While in Bethlehem, Mary gave birth to Jesus.
Probably due to the census, the inn was too crowded, and Mary gave birth in a crude stable. She wrapped the baby in cloths and placed him in a manger.
The Shepherd's Worship the Savior:
Out in the fields, an angel of the Lord appeared to the shepherds who
were tending their flocks of sheep by night. The angel announced that
the Savior had been born in the town of David. Suddenly a great host of
heavenly beings appeared with the angels and began singing praises to
God. As the angelic beings departed, the shepherds decided to travel to
Bethlehem and see the Christ-child.
There they found Mary,
Joseph and the baby, in the stable. After their visit, they began to
spread the word about this amazing child and everything the angel had
said about him. They went on their way still praising and glorifying
God. But Mary kept quiet, treasuring their words and pondering them in
her heart. It must have been beyond her ability to grasp, that sleeping
in her arms—the tender child she had just borne—was the Savior of the
world.
