Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

Let us go with the shepherds to the manger of Christ, that is, His Church, and as He lay in that manger in swaddling clothes, so in the sacred scriptures, we shall find our Savior.  Let us also with a lively recollection of the words of this mystery, like Mary, the blessed mother of our Lord, keep pondering them continually in our hearts.  -- Blessed Johann Gerhard, Sacred Meditation XIV
