Quotemeal: Dec. 25th, 2010

Saturday, December 25, 2010

"Let us remember that the Christmas heart is a giving heart, a wideopen heart that thinks of others first. The birth of the baby Jesus stands as the most significant event in all history, because it has meant the pouring into a sick world of the healing medicine of love which has transformed all manner of hearts for almost two thousand years... Underneath all the bulging bundles is this beating Christmas heart."
— George Matthew Adams
