JAMES GIBBONS (1)
American prelate and author (1834 - 1921)
|
To-day the whole Christian world prostrates itself in adoration
around the crib of Bethlehem and rehearses in accents of love a
history which precedes all time and will endure throughout
eternity. As if by an instinct of our higher, spiritual nature,
there well up from the depths of our hearts, emotions which
challenge the power of human expression. We seem to be lifted
out of the sphere of natural endeavor to put on a new life and to
stretch forward in desire to a blessedness which, though not
palpable, is eminently real.
