He is the Gift

Reaching out to others.  Is there any other time during the year when people think of others more than during the month of December?  It's been so rewarding to do something every day for someone else.  Little acts of service, bigger acts, medium acts.  The thing is to... ACT! I've loved being involved in various ways to bring some joy to someone else.  So very fun.  Such a great feeling.  I came across this great list of links of ideas to keep the focus on the Savior at this Christmas time. How will you share The Gift?

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints provides many online resources to inspire and focus members' attention on the Savior. Here are just a few free and easy things you can do to make Christmas this year less about what you purchase, give, or receive and more about the Savior Jesus Christ.
1. Watch the First Presidency’s Christmas Devotional with seasonal music and inspiring messages.

2. Watch the “He Is the Gift” video and share it on social media with a personal message (#ShareTheGift, #ShareGoodness).
3. Watch the Bible Video “The Nativity.”
4. Scroll through the Church History Museum’s online gallery to see inspiring paintings relating to the Birth of Christ.
