New Lutheran Quote of the Day

And if your vision of faith is clear enough, you will see at the Altar not merely bread and wine, but the Christ-Child, the Word made flesh.  After Christmas?  You will do the same as did the Wise Men.  They went home by another way, not by way of Jerusalem.  You will go another way, the way of the new life.  And with the shepherds you will make known abroad all that you have seen and realized. -- B. von Schenk, The Presence, p. 55.
