FELIZ NAVIDAD!

MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!

Christmas is quite different down here haha, as you can imagine. They all started decorating about maybe 10 days ago haha. They are late for everything haha.

But this Christmas is more than just the presents and all the chocolate. As we are using ¨the gift¨ -Christ- to contact those who need to know what he did for us. And what it truly means to be a brother or sister of Christ. This is a time to remember what he did for us, The Atonement. Not just his birth, but also his miracles and his sacrifice.  As we remember these things, his doctrine, his sacrifice, we understand the true meaning of Christmas, and why he is THE GIFT for all of us this Christmas season. We understand that he knows my struggles, he knows your struggles. He knows, that’s why he is always right there with us.

Isaiah 53: 3-5, 7-9

Isaiah really explains something touching in these verses, as the Saviour was silent before he was crucified for all the sins of the world. and that through his stripes were are healed.

Through his stripes we are healed.

Wow.

We know that there were only 3 that made it back to Christ. But how many left for this journey. I’m sure there were many, but only three.

Because they were willing to make to the long and rough quest. We too can be like one of the 3 kings, and endure to the end! And know that there is something better waiting for us and the end of the quest.

I know Christ suffered all. But suffered it for us, so that we could return to him. So that we could have a hope, for a better world after this. Ether 12:4. I know Christ lives and that he knows all of our afflictions in this life. And that’s why we need to Remember the true significance of his life in this CHRISTmas season.

Ether 3:14

Alma 7:11

I wish everyone a very MERRY ´CHRIST´MAS !

Love

He gave no explanation to these pictures. The only explanation is that this tie has got to be a gift, or he wouldn't be wearing it. I'm suspecting the Bailey's. But the fabric looks like it was made in Peru.

We also learn that his nose is clear of any infection :)
