Kindness sent His son to earth;
Sacrifice laid him in the manager.
"What Christ is to us we ought to, in our human measure, be to others. Christmas means love. Christ came to our world to pour divine kindness on weary, needy, perishing human lives. The Christmas spirit in our hearts should send us out on the same errand. There is need everywhere for love's ministry. We should learn the true Christmas lesson of gentle,
thoughtful kindness to those we love and to all we meet in life's busy ways.
