Christmas is not a day or a season, but a condition of heart and mind.
If we love our neighbors as ourselves;
If in our riches we are poor in spirit and in our poverty we are rich in grace;
If our charity vaunteth not itself, but suffereth long and I kind;
If when our brother asks for a loaf, we give ourselves instead;
If each day dawns in opportunity and sets in achievement, however small----
Then every day is Christ’s day and Christmas is always near.
