As Christmas time approaches us, this quote is a great reminder
of what we should be thinking about this season. We need to make sure that we
are grateful for the mercy that our Father in Heaven shows to us and has shown
by giving of his son so that we all might live.
"The spirit of giving gifts has been present in the
mind of each Christian as he or she commemorates the Christmas season. Our
Heavenly Father gave to us His Son, Jesus Christ. That precious Son gave to us
His life, the Atonement, and victory over the grave.
"What will you and I give for Christmas this year? Let
us in our lives give to our Lord and Savior the gift of gratitude by living His
teachings and following in His footsteps. It was said of Him that He 'went
about doing good.' As we do likewise, the Christmas spirit will be ours." ~Thomas
S. Monson, "What Is
Christmas?" Ensign, Dec. 1998, 5
