It is a good time to straighten out
the kink* that have tangled your life
during the year. That harsh word

the soul—you have never sought par

do sometime. When will you find a
better time to make it rign f ? And
is there any coldness between you
aind any one else? Melt it before
’the glowing Christmas firn and
never iet it freeze again. Pence in

Are there some things that
be better left untouched and un

gone*. Bury differences under the
Christmas snow and let them -leep
quietly beneath the mantle of white.

laps he i
brought Him to mortal man; has
given a real meaning to the words,
“the word was made flesh and dwrelt
among us.’ Have you ever given this
interpretation to the advent-story—
that Jesus, by his coming, has
brought the Father to earth?
Before the advent of Jesu» there
was the smoking sacrifice, the priest
hood, the obliations, the types and
shadows. But holy men have writ
ten for our profit that Jesus is the
“Lamb of God;” he is “our passover.”
”th e blood of Jesus Christ clcanseth
from all sin.” From the lips of
Jesus there fell an invitation, “Come
unto all ye thut labor and are heuvy
laden; and I will give thee rest.” If
thut invita.ion is uppermost in the
mind, and if we will accept what the
Scriptures jay about the mission of
Jesus, we will see a religious signific-
ence in the advent-story. Do we
and our children get .he religious
eaning to the coming of Jesus?
Another signiiicent fuct with
firencc to the coming of Jesus in
the glorifying of the commonplace.
To whom did the angels make known
the coming of the Savior? Not to
religious leaders, nor to kings,
even philosophers. The metasge
came to unknown shepherd*, who.
all probability, had never made
single contribution to the life of
their day, other thun common toil.
Yet God chose them ns the audience
to listen to the music which came
from the throne of God, music which
was of such a nature that huntun lips
were not permitted to give it ex
pression. A stable was the first
home the One who was born to be
a King, One who left his home in
glory and came to earth thut He
might set captives free. The animal-

to the event which marked the com
ing of the “King of glory,” the event
