The text on the front is handwritten by Birgitta
Writing from Sweden she explained,
"The little verse on the other side I found in a book while in Norway. I’ve seen it before & it made a deep impression on me. Translated:
‘If Jesus Christ a thousand times
was born in Bethlehem,
But never in my heart,
I would anyway be lost.’"
But never in my heart,
I would anyway be lost.’"
This is so very true. Let’s us keep this perspective in mind during these days leading up to Christmas Day and beyond through the New Year.
