And His Name Shall Be Called.....

This Christmas season my halls will only be half decked, Santa Clause will come down thru the chimney with less toys, and there is little energy left to ring the jingle bells but I am with wondering awe as I have focused more on the little babe born away in a manger.

I know that He was born for me and you and he will not leave us alone during our hard times.
Even though my Christmas this year is not going to be picture perfect, I have felt more PEACE, LOVE and JOY as I have had to focused on Christ. He is known by many names but the one that I love the best is "Savior". He is my Savior and my husband's Savior. I trust his plan for us.

One of my favorite gifts this year is a 12 Days of Christmas gift from a caring friend. It was delivered as an open-wrapped gift with 12 wrapped gifts inside. Each day I get to unwrap one red ornament which has a different name of Christ on it. The gifts also includes related scriptures and videos from LDS.org. Sometimes I open the ornament and watch the video all by myself and sometimes I include my family. Every package is little balm-for-my-soul gift each day......something we all need so I'm passing this soul balm onto you. If you don't have time to watch each of these....at least watch this one:

Wishing you a very Christ-filled Christmas!
