You hold in your hands the happiness of more people than you can imagine.

(In your callings) you have access to more than your natural capacities, and you do not work alone. The Lord will magnify what you say and what you do in the eyes of the people you serve. He will send the Holy Ghost to manifest to them that what you spoke was true. What you say and do will carry hope and give direction to people far beyond your natural abilities and your own understanding.

With one eye on today's blessings you will have more staying power for the distant goal.

You can give a great and wonderful Christmas if you remember the gifts God has given you and, as best you can, offer them to others as He would. That is the spirit of Christmas and of true happiness every day.

We help God's children best by providing ways to build faith in Jesus Christ and in His restored gospel when they are young.
