Christmas is more that a time of festivities, family, and friends; it is a season of generosity, gladness, and gratitude.

Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Before you retire, save. Before you die, give.

Lose yourself in generous service and every day can be a most unusual day, a triumphant day, an abundantly rewarding day!
