"Listen, the Celestial Messengers emit harmonious sounds"
- Can anyone guess what Christmas song this is referring to? Thats your challenge for today. My treat for the day is a leftover turkey sandwich. I make them differently than some. You take your favorite bread and mix a little mayo, cranberry sauce, and mustard togther and spread it on the bread. Then you put a couple of pieces of bacon on it, next put some slices of cold turducken, then layer on some cornbread stuffing and your favorite kind of cheese. It is "tur"iffic. It is a slight variation on those great leftover turkey sandwiches we love to make after the turkey dinner. But adding the stuffing and the bacon and cheese just kicks it up a little. Try it out.
"Thoughts of Jesus...[should] be far more frequent and much more constant in all times and seasons of our lives. How often do we think of the Savior? How deeply and how gratefully and how adoringly do we reflect on his life? How central to our lives do we know him to be?" (Howard W. Hunter, Ensign, May 93, p. 64)
I am so looking forward to the First Presidency's Christmas Devotional this Sun. I hope everyone can take time to enjoy thier beautiful messages. I know they are prophets of God. It is a great thing that we can hear from them, from men who love Jesus Christ, who try to do His will, and who are trusted by Him to lead His Church here on earth.
Celebrating Christmas in small ways every day is sure to help bring a greater Spirit of peace into this season of the year. This time of year, the focus on the Savior Jesus Christ, the gratitute and compassion found in peoples hearts, and the traditions that bring warmth and love into life are what really needs to be celebrated and enjoyed. This season is often hectic and some can become less than merry, even to the point of "Bah, Humbug". Hopefully this does not happen to you.
