Is there even one person here who can truthfully say, I’m so overflowing with joy I can hardly contain myself? Just one? Would you like to know how to get that kind of joy in your life? ...read more

    Angels' music, while sweet, was not designed to be a resting place for a baby's head. Since cribs are not found in stables, the only thing that could serve that purpose was something as simple as the feeding trough of the stable animals ... the manger.

    The sun was setting over ancient Palestine, as it had done so many times before. The wife of the manger-maker walked to the back door of the little workshop in the back of the house, as she had done so many times before. She went there to tell her husband that the evening meal was ready. ...read more
