"Let [this] be a time to remember the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ, that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and the worship of the Wise Men. My brothers and sisters, may the spirit of love which comes at Christmas time fill our homes and our lives and linger there long after the tree is down and the lights are put away for another year. "-President Thomas S. Monson

I love the prophet of the church. He is an inspired man. This is an excerpt from his talk, entitled A Bright Shining Star, at this year's Christmas Devotional (click here for the whole talk).

Merry Christmas! May the true meaning of Christmas fill this season and carry over into your next year.
