”Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.
"All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the
prophet: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they
shall call his name Immanuel, which means, God with us.
"When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him: he took his wife, but knew her not until she had given birth to a son. And he called his name Jesus.” Matthew 1:18-25

“Amid all the hubbub and hustle this time of year always brings, we should not forget the simple beauty of that first Christmas long ago. In the center of all lay the infant, born in the shadows and straw of a stable in Bethlehem, yet truly the fulfillment of ancient prophecies and the hope of every age to come.” Ronald Reagan
“To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable.” Ludwig van Beethoven
