In the book of Luke, we are told that Mary, seeing the sign of the star, the birth of her baby and the witnesses of the shepherds, "kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart." Mary's example of selfless sacrifice has always amazed me, but her ability to ponder the miracle of her son's life is something I wish to emulate as I take the time to study and learn more of him this Christmas Season (and always).
