A Child Is Born

The excellence of a gift lies in its appropriateness rather than in its value. - Charles Dudley Warner

This will be short Post. Think about the quote above. Apply it to the birth of Christ. It is the perfect gift, given with the purest of hearts and love. 

There would be no Christmas if there was no Easter. - Gordon B. Hinckley

It was appropriate that Christ was born to the Virgin Mary. It was a pure birth, untainted and profound. The value of that gift is realized at Easter. The life we live is a time of learning, of testing and of grace. It is how much we value that grace that determines our path through this life. That Grace is the purest form of love we can ever hope to know. 

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to all. 

God bless you and may the blessings of the Lord grace you through the year. Remember to always Love The Details.
