Real Meaning of Christmas

As part of my calling as Relief Socitey Committe Leader I worked with my committee in bringing about a Christmas Program for the sisters in our ward. I have been so excited for this, its on Dec 8th. The program is called "The Meaning of Christmas". When I saw this video it made me even more excited because it goes so perfectly with my program.

I have been reflecting alot on the Savior and his birth. Last night for family night we also watched President Monson's talk from the First Presidency Message. I thinking of a loving Heavenly Father who sent his Son, Jesus Christ to us that through him he could return to live with him. I think of my own father and know how much he loves me and can't even comprehend the love Heavenly Father has for me, but can feel it. I love Christmas and thanks to my Mom it has always been a very special time of year. She always made it special for us. But not because of the presents and everything else commercialized, but because of the Spirit of Christmas she brought into our home growing up. Without Jesus Christ there would have never been Christmas. We should continue to live and feel this spirit all year long and not just one month out of the year.

Merry Chirstmas Everyone! May the Spirit of Chirstmas bless your homes.
