In Spanish "mas" means more. So Christmas in the Spanglish world can mean MORE Christ.
This Christmas, let there be more Christ. That is your decision.
Be kinder, more patient, more helpful, a better friend, a stronger family member.
Pay for someone behind you in line, smile sincerly, visit a widowed neighbor (dont let anyone be alone), open the door for someone else and mean it.
"Each of us is an innkeeper who decides if there is room for Jesus." - Elder Neal A. Maxwell
You might know these as Christmas Scriptures. But if you dont, take the time this year to read them. Find a place that is silent, say a prayer, and read Luke 2:1-22, 1 Nephi 11:18-23, and 3 Nephi 1: 4-22. Meditate on all that Christ has done for you, he was humbly born, taught, died for us, and was resurrected. HE LIVES. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
Change bad habits, do the things you know you should be doing but arent. Appreciate this time with family and friends. Cherish every blessing you have around you.
Instead of looking at a list of what you dont have. Thank God for the never ending list of things you do have.
I love you all, and I hope you have a very Merry CHRIST FILLED Christmas! :)
Love Always,
Hermana Smith
