You can feel it


"As we emulate his perfect example our hands can become his hands, our eyes his eyes, our heart his heart"

True love is a reflection of the Savior's love. In December of each year we call it the Christmas spirit. You can hear it. You can see it. You can feel it.   Thomas S. Monson

I testify that when the Lord closes one important door in your life, He shows His continuing love and compassion by opening many other compensating doors through your exercise of faith. He will place in your path pockets of spiritual sunlight to brighten your way.    Richard G. Scott

"You can give a great and wonderful Christmas if you remember the gifts God has given you, and as best you can, offer them to others as He would."    Henry B. Eyring

"We must not lose hope. Hope is an anchor to the souls of men. Satan would have us cast away that anchor.  In this way he can bring discouragement and surrender.  But we must not lose hope."  

Ezra Taft Benson

May we all make the journey to Bethlehem in spirit, taking with us a tender, caring heart as our gift to the Savior."       Thomas S. Monson 

Christmas means giving. The Father gave his Son, and the Son gave his life. Without giving there is no true Christmas, and without sacrifice there is no true worship. There is more to Christmas than neckties, earrings, toys, and all the tinseled stuff of which we make so much. 

Gordon B. Hinckley

"Every divine gift and every spiritual privilege that gives us access to the power of heaven comes from Christ or through Christ or because of Christ. We owe everything to Him and to our Father in Heaven."

Sheri Dew

Often our efforts at Christmastime result in our feeling stressed out, wrung out, and worn out during a time we should feel the simple joys of commemorating the birth of our Savior.
