"Adoration of the Magi" Jan de Bray 1674
Our hope is that each of us can re-create that familiar scene in Bethlehem in our own lives and in our families. Each of us has a star to follow just as the Wise Men did. “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” (Ps. 119:105.) We can kneel at the feet of our Savior just as the shepherds and the Wise Men did when we pray. The gifts we give are the service we render in his behalf in building up the Kingdom of God. We can shout “Hosanna” like that angelic choir and spread the good news by bearing our testimonies. By works of righteousness, we can come unto Him each day of our lives just as if we had trod in our sandaled feet the rocky path to Bethlehem, holding a staff or bearing gifts.
We hope you have a wonderful Christmas this year, and are so grateful for all our friends and family! Especially this year with the wedding, Kenny and I had each of our sisters and brothers there which meant so much to us, we had friends travel from California and Texas to be there and just an outpouring of love and help from our ward family who worked for many hours to make it a special day for us!
We love you very much and wish you all the best!
