Dear Children of our Heavenly Father,
I would just like to share my testimony of Our Savior this Christmas season.
I
know that He lives. I know that He was born in the most humble of
circumstances and that it was so that He could show us humility and
growth. He was raised by loving parents and always kept close to the
Holy Ghost so that Our Heavenly Father could always talk to and through
Him. He was baptised to show us how, to give us the example and to
fulfill all righteousness. He did so many miracles to help the sick and
the downtrodden, the angry and the hopeless, the lame and the dead. Not
one miracle done by Him was for His own good or His own benefit. He
helped others perfectly so that they could be able to grow spiritually.
His teachings were perfect and adequate. He taught with love and the
Spirit and showed us, mainly by His example, the way that we should live
and serve Heavenly Fathers children. He organized His church to bless
all and show all the path back home. He suffered and bled and felt all
that there is and was and will be. There is nothing that He does not
know. Nothing that He has not already overcome. Because of His suffering
and death and resurrection, It. Is. Finished. Death is overcome, Life
Eternal is ours and the enemy of all of our souls has lost. We simply
have to follow. Follow the Babe that was born more than two thousand
years ago. He is the way. Follow the path that He has already opened.
His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Give it to Him. He loves you
and blesses you. Merry Christmas, for it is His birth and life and His
kingdom that we celebrate! (Isaiah 9:6)
Love,
Elder Allen
