Merry Christmas

We would just like to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas. I am so thankful for the birth of our brother and Savior, Jesus Christ. I'm glad that we have the opportunity of celebrating his birth and reflecting on his perfect life. I'm grateful for Mary and Joseph for their obedience and faithfulness in raising The Son of God. What faith and obedience it took on their part to fulfill the will of our Father In Heaven to have his Son born in a lowly stable to such a virtuous woman, who Joseph loved deeply. I'm thankful that they took the time to teach, love and raise him. I'm especially grateful for my Savior, Jesus Christ for his life filled of service, love, obedience, leadership, and friend. I know that Jesus is the Christ, that through him and only him we can return to live with our Father in Heaven again one day. It's through his atonement that we are able to be cleansed from our sins,our heartaches, our pains, disappointments, and anything and everything that this wonderful life has to offer each of us. I know that our Savior is our Brother and Friend. I'm truly and forever grateful for his sacrifice in my behalf. I'm thankful to know that it is through the gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, which the Lord himself instituted on the earth, that we are all an eternal family and each of us have the opportunity of returning to live with our Father in Heaven. I'm so thankful for that little babe, who was born in a Manger, what endless love he has for each of us. Merry Christmas means so much to me- it stands for Mary the mother of the Christ. I hope you all have a safe and wonderful Christmas and a happy holiday.
