The Spirit of Christmas

The woman that I visit teach, which just so happens to be our loving relief society president, gave me a present for Christmas. Included in her present was this talk by President Monson. It was a great reminder for me, if you have second in your day, read it. It's great.

"Giving, not getting, brings to full bloom the Christmas spirit. Enemies are forgiven, friends remembered, and God obeyed. The spirit of Christmas illuminates the picture window of the soul, and we look out upon the world’s busy life and become more interested in people than things. To catch the real meaning of the “spirit of Christmas,” we need only drop the last syllable, and it becomes the “Spirit of Christ.”" -Thomas S. Monson
