“Kissing the Face of God” by Morgan Weistling
“Part of the purpose for telling the story of Christmas is to remind us that Christmas doesn’t come from a store. Indeed, however delightful we feel about it, even as children, each year it ‘means a little bit more.’ And no matter how many times we read the biblical account of that evening in Bethlehem, we always come away with a thought—or two—we haven’t had before….
“I, like you, need to remember the very plain scene, even the poverty, of a night devoid of tinsel or wrapping or goods of this world. Only when we see that sacred, unadorned child of our devotion—the Babe of Bethlehem—will we know why… the giving of gifts is so appropriate”
Jeffrey R. Holland
I love the quotes you find to post… because usually they aren’t familiar. And of course, I LOVE this picture! 🙂
Random quotes—they are my “scientific speciality.”
