Christmas Thoughts for 2013

"Christmas isn't a season. It's a

feeling."

“Christmas is most truly Christmas when we celebrate it by giving the light of love to those who need it most.”

Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.

Bless us Lord, this

Christmas, with quietness

of mind;

Teach us to be patient

and always to be kind.

"Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and

more beautiful."

"Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a

conspiracy of love."

God grant you the light in Christmas, which is faith;

The warmth of Christmas, which is love;The radiance of Christmas, which is purity;

The righteousness of Christmas, which is justice;The belief in Christmas, which is truth;The all of Christmas, which is Christ.

"A Christmas candle is a lovely thing; It makes no noise at all, But softly gives itself away;

While quite unselfish, it grows small."

"A Christmas candle is a lovely thing; It makes no noise at all, But softly gives itself away;

While quite unselfish, it grows small."

Perhaps the best Yuletide decoration is

being wreathed in

smiles.

"This is Christmas: not the tinsel, not the giving and receiving, not even the carols, but the

humble heart that receives anew the wondrous gift, the Christ."

"Christmas is the season for kindling the fire of hospitality in the hall, the genial flame of charity in the heart."

"Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts.

"The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a

happy family all wrapped up in each

other."

Peace on earth will come to stay, when we live Christmas every day.

Christmas is tenderness for the past, courage for the

present, hope for the future.

May you have the gladness of Christmas which is hope;The spirit of Christmas which is peace;The heart of Christmas which is love.

May peace and plenty be the first to lift the latch on your door, And happiness be

guided to your home by the candle of

Christmas!

"Best of all, Christmas means a spirit of love, a time when the love of God and the love of our fellow men should prevail over all hatred and bitterness, a time when our thoughts and deeds and the spirit of our

lives manifest the presence of God."

Christmas Blessings

Wishing You

a Merry Christmas full

of Loving Thoughts...
