"The breaking news of Christmas can turn your heart and your home upside down, not by guilt, not by shame, but by an overwhelming, unimaginable, illogical, mind-boggling, impossible amount of good breaking news. We don't deserve this infant visitor. We couldn't, not even the best of us, and that is the best news of all. You can't earn the love that appears tonight. You can only respond to it. You can only say, as the shepherd said, "Let us go now and see this thing that has taken place." Or as the angelic choir said, "Glory to God in the highest heaven." Or as the psalmist has said, "When I consider the sun, the moon, the planets in their courses, what are human beings?" That God should come among us and be mindful of us. Tonight's breaking news turns the sad question marks of the world into unwavering exclamation marks of God."
