Christmas season is full of gifts. Gifts receiving and gift giving is what makes this Season so special. As you give and receive many gifts of all types this year, pause to reflect on remembering gifts you were given as a child, a teenager, and as an adult. What were they? Who gave them to you? What made them special?
But most importantly reflect on that first Christmas. Learn by heart the reason for the season and the GIFT given to YOU from your brother, Jesus Christ, Our Savior!
"The Spirit of Christmases we remember best usually have little to do with worldly goods but a lot to do with the spirit of caring, the spirit of love, and the spirit of compassion." President Thomas S. Monson (Dec. 3, 2006, 1st Presidency Christmas Devotional)
