We can with confidence set a goal to make this Christmas brighter than the last and each year that follows brighter still.

At the creation of man and woman, unity for them in marriage was not given as hope; it was a command! 'Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh

Heavenly Father and the Savior are grateful that you do your part. They know you, They watch over you, and They love you.

If we choose to exercise faith, the Holy Ghost will bring God's kindnesses to our remembrance.

As you pray and serve others, your knowledge that you are a child of God and your feelings about Him will grow.

I hope you will go out today looking for opportunities to do as He did and to love as He loves. I can promise you the peace that you felt as a child will come to you often and it will linger with you. The promise is true that He made to His disciples: “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you:... not as the world giveth, give I unto you.

The miracle of unity is being granted to us as we pray and work for it in the Lord's way. Our hearts will be knit together in unity. God has promised that blessing to His faithful Saints whatever their differences in background and whatever conflict rages around them.
