“Christmas is more than a time of music, merriment and mirth; it is a season of meditation, mangers and miracles. Christmas is more than a time of carols, cards and candy; it is a season of dedication and decision.” DecisionMeditationSeasonsMiracleChristmasCardsDedicationCandyMirthCarolsMerriment Author:William Arthur Ward
“How about this miracle... God says if you plant the seed I will make the tree. Wow, you can't have a better arrangement than that. First, it gives God the tough end of the deal. What if you had to make a tree? That would keep you up late at night trying to figure out how to make a tree. God says, "No, leave the miracle part to me. I've got the seed, the soil, the sunshine, the rain and the seasons. I'm God and all this miracles stuff is easy for me. I have reserved something very special for you and that is to plant the seed.” IfsGivingTryingFirstsEndsNightEasyStuffDealsTreeSpecialFiguresLateToughRainSeasonsMiraclePlantSeedsSoilSunshineWhat IfWowArrangementsReserved Author:Jim Rohn

“It is easy to forget now, how effervescent and free we all felt that summer. Everything fades: the shimmer of gold over White Cove; the laughter in the night air; the lavender early morning light on the faces of skyscrapers, which had suddenly become so heroically tall. Every dawn seemed to promise fresh miracles, among other joys that are in short supply these days. And so I will try to tell you, while I still remember, how it was then, before everything changed-that final season of the era that roared.” TryingStillsLightRememberFacesJoyNightFeltEasyWhiteForgetMorningAirChangedPromiseSummerLaughterGoldSeasonsMiracleFinalsErasThese DaysDawnTallFadesEarly MorningSkyscraperLavenderShimmerMorning Light Book:Bright Young Things Source: Bright Young Things
“The Christmas season reminds us that a demonstration of religion is always much better than a definition of it...especially in front of the kids. Perhaps the best Yuletide decorations are to be wreathed in smiles and wrapped in hugs. The miracle of Christmas is that a baby can be so decisive. It is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty founder was a child himself.” ChildrenSometimesKidsFrontsBabySeasonsMiracleDefinitionsChristmasHugFoundersDemonstrationDecorationChristmas Season Author:Charles Dickens
