Christmas Time Yee Haw


Well, we are finally to my most favorite time of the year, it makes me crazy because I can never get enough, the time zooms by and every moment is filled to the brim, and we have to fight like crazy to get some moments of quiet reflection. So I thought I would start this month out thanking my Heavenly Father for my Savior. I love the Savior so much, what a wonderful gift he is in my life. The amount of love that he has for each one of us in incomprehensible to me, I think of him at this time of year and just wish I could be more like Him. I remember a time in my mission when I was so frustrated at my lack of scripture knowledge, and after praying about it I was told that the greatest mystery that I need to worry about is learning to love the way the Savior does. Christ like love, that is what I want for Christmas. I want to be able to show those around me that I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I want to show my Heavenly Father that I want to be his hands, I want to have his image in my countenance. I know this sounds trite, but it is truly the desire of my heart. I love my Savior, Jesus Christ, I am so thankful for the atonement and the chance I have been given here on earth to try to emulate him. I love this time of year for that reason, a chance to remember the greatest gift ever given to man. I love you all
