Christmas Devotional


Every year I look forward to the Christmas Devotional put out by the General First Presidency.  I love the Spiritual messages that are given.  This year was even better for we were able to watch it from home.  I was so thankful because I knew that I couldn't have gone to the Church to watch it, so I was especially grateful to have watched it at home with my dear family.

I hope that I can maintain the Spirit Of Christ thru this season and thru out the year to come.  We try to do our part in teaching our children what Christmas is really about.  And they have never ever asked for much at all.  In fact sometimes it is hard to find out what they want because they have a very short list and want us to know that they know that it isn't about the gifts.

I feel very blessed to be here with my family.  I love this time of year when hearts are softer than usual, people tend to forget to hold a grudge and go out of their way to serve.  I am thankful for the greatest gift of all, my Savior.  His love and sacrifice, his example are what I treasure up most.  I love all of you and wish you the most wonderful Christmas season and to feel of our love and His love for you.  Thank you for putting up with me this year, I know it's not an easy task, but I truly appreciate your love!

We are back in Cascade so we have acess to the computer again. Hopefully before the day is over we will be able to listen to the Christmas devotional via the Internet. Sorry we missed you last night. We were looking forward to seeing all the family and the Christmas decorations.

Love,
Mom
