The spirit of Christmas is Christlike love.

As you keep moving forward, you can stay upright even when outside forces try to pull you down.

We just need to relax and rejoice in our divine differences. We need to realize that we all desire to serve in the kingdom, using our unique talents and gifts in our own ways.

The love of God has been described as the highest, noblest, strongest kind of love and the most joyous to the soul.

There is no age barrier when it comes to Christlike service. … As we look beyond our differences in age, culture, and circumstance to nurture and serve one another, we will be filled with the pure love of Christ and the inspiration which leads us to know when and whom to serve.

Let us help build the kingdom of God by standing up boldly and being defenders of marriage, parenthood, and the home.

Everyone, no matter what their marital circumstance or number of children, can be defenders of the Lord’s plan described in the family proclamation. If it is the Lord’s plan, it should also be our plan!
