Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone that we love!!!
Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season remembering the true meaning of the season and being thankful for our dear Savior's birth. Life would not have any meaning without Jesus and his purpose of becoming flesh and taking on our sins and dying on the cross. Simple as that, our sins were taken care of and all we have to do it receive that gift. There are no other ways to get to heaven accept to acknowledge his life and what He and His Father sacrificed for us. I am a sinner and so grateful that I don't have to carry the burden of that alone. I don't have to feel a life of guilt and have men judge me and tell me what I can and can't do. My Savior took all of that burden away and I am thankful to be able to turn it over to Him and he gladly bares it for me. When something is a gift it means you don't have to do anything for it, it was given with no strings attached. I need to be a good example for people and live the way Christ would want me to live, but I don't have to do works and be busy, busy all the time to earn my way there. There is no possible way we could ever earn our way to heaven and that is why there was such a thing as what happened at the cross. Enjoy the gifts that you have been given this year and pass along the real meaning of the season.
