Get Christ first, put Him in the right place, and you will find Him to be the wisdom of God in your own experience.

Charles Spurgeon

We venture to assert, that if there be any day in the year, of which we may be pretty sure that it was not the day on which the Savior was born, it is the 25th of December. Regarding not the day, let us, nevertheless, give thanks to God for the gift of His dear Son.
