It is getting closer and closer! Christmas time!!!!!!!!!

I am so excited! I love the season of Christmas! I heard a story recently about Santa Claus and the similarities he has with Christ. Here I will share

He wears red. (Isaiah 63:2)
His hair is white. (Revelation 1:14)
He comes in the Night. (1 Thessalonians 5:2)
He loves little children. (Matthew 19:14)
He knows we are good. (1 Timothy 2:3,4)
And He brings gifts. (James 1:17)

Symbols
Wreath
Eternal love, no beginning, no end. Love comes full circle

Candle
The light of Christ, our own inner light

Gifts
Giving, sharing, thinking of others

Bow
Tied in the bonds of brotherly love

Bell
Rings to bring lost sheep home

Tree
The evergreen of everlasting life, pointing heavenward

Red
The Savior's sacrifice for all

Shepherd's crook for bringing lambs back to the fold

Star
The Bethlehem star, a sign of prophecy, the light of the world

Santa Claus
The spirit of Christmas, giving and receiving love, caring, sharing, kindness, cheerfulness, happiness, peace, good will to all, Christlike living

The Challenge the "Book of Mormon" makes to the world

I have a strong testimony that the Book Of Mormon is true! I love it and I read it everyday. I constantly pray to have a reassurance that it is true. I know with all of my heart, might, mind and soul that it is TRUE! The reason I pray constantly to know that it is true is to have an unwavering testimony of it. I know Joseph Smith translated it for the world to read. I don't want to hide the principles and teachings it has of Jesus Christ in it from the world. I know it is ANOTHER Testament of Jesus Christ that HE LIVES! And that He loves ALL nations kindred, tongue and people. If our Heavenly Father wants to give us more scriptures to know that He and His son live how dare we say they can't! This wonderful book does NOT replace the Bible! It builds upon the truths that are in it! I love it and I invite you to read it and find out for yourself that it is true. I found this challenge and I want to share it.

Planning and executing my trip to Europe!

On February 1st I decided I would take a trip to Europe! I was sitting at work at H&R Block and talking with a coworker and just randomly decided that I would go visit a friend in Spain. As time went on I didn't know if it would be possible but I was determined. I decided I would go donate plasma to help earn money. I donated once and it was an interesting experience. The following week on Feb 9 I got a letter from them telling me I couldn't donate plasma anymore because I got a false positive for a test, so they couldn't trust my blood. I was super bummed about it, but I was still determined. I was constantly looking at flights and playing around with dates, departure cities, and arriving cities. On February 11 I found a great flight to Paris on April 24 and coming back on May 25, so round trip for only 420$! For that price I can fly to my family in GA round trip! So I pulled the money together that day and I bought it! I just made a life long dream a reality. ...

I have been called

When I opened up my mission call this is what I read: You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. That means so much to me! "Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life." ( 3 Nephi 5:13 ) I have left my family for a short time, so others may be with their families for eternity. If you are struggling, feeling lost, not complete, or anything Christ can help! Let Him help you! If you have any questions feel free to ask me, other missionaries in your area or look on mormon.org . We want to help! We love you and we want you too know Christ loves you!  CALLED TO SERVE Called to serve Him, heavenly King of glory, Chosen e'er to witness for his name, Far and wide we tell the  Father's story, Far and wide his love proclaim. Called to know the richness of his blessing, Sons and  Daughters, Childre...
