Beautiful book.
Angels delivered God's message of love as they watched over the Christ Child in the stable on the first Christmas long ago. Collected in the pages of this volume are sixty true accounts of people ho have been touched by Christmas miracles--everyday people who have been brought tidings of comfort, protection, and joy by God's messengers.
Here readers will meet a young couple who hear the comforting strains of a caroler outside their door, but find no footprints in the snow when they look outside. They'll read of a mysterious New York City bus driver who drives a young woman straight to her sister's home in Queens. And they'll learn of a young girl who is overwhelmed by the generosity of Santa when he arrives at her family's home on Christmas day with a cupboard full of food.

Each of these stories reminds the reader of the ultimate message of Christmas: The Lord has come. His name is Emmanuel-- God With Us.
