Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

In these days of joy, presents, food, and family, take time to remember the fortunes we have. No matter how small, count your blessings. Hug your loved ones. Re-form old friendships. Spend your time generously, be miserly with your criticisms, and give hope a merry place in your heart.

Pray for those suffering, grieve with the mourners, honor sweet memories of your fallen. Tears of joy and sorrow flow equally well. Pay attention to the special moments, and don't let old grudges fester. Let this be a time of celebration for the prospects of new beginnings.

Most important, remember why we celebrate: our Savior's birth.
