"He was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him. He came to that which was His own, but His own did not receive Him. Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God..." John 1:10-12
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no on can boast." Ephesians 2:8-9
"The miracle is always that God is gracious. You don't have to earn Christmas, you don't have to perform Christmas, you don't have to make Christmas. You can rest in Christ. You can wait with Christ. You can breathe easy in Christ. Open your heart to the miracle of grace. He will prepare your heart for the coming of the Lord." Ann Voskamp,
