So I just wanted to share a quick spiritual thought this week while we are all getting ready for Christmas.
In Matthew 5:16 it says ``Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.``
I love this scripture becuase we learn how important it is to glorify our Heavenly Father. By the service we give to others we can represent our Savior Jesus Christ and we can focus on the love he has for each and every one of us. Also in Mosiah 2:17 we learn that ``when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God``. This Christmas we have the chance to remember the birth of our Savior. Christ was born in a manger and grew up living a humble life. He served, taught, and sacrificed everything just to help us return to live with him and our Heavenly Father. I know that Christ lives and that he loves us. This Christmas season we have to chance to remember him. He is The gift. He is The light of the world. Let him be the focus of our Christmas this year and help a friend or a family member remember this too.
