Merry Christmas!
John 8:12, "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life," and D&C 6:21, "Behold, I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I am the same that came unto mine own, and mine own received me not. I am the light which shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehendeth it not." These scriptures testify of the truth of Christ, that He came to the world for the world. I love the allegory of Him being like light in the darkness, because so often when I read from the scriptures or pray sincerely I feel like a light of hope, love, and peace touches me. It's like I didn't realize how much in "darkness" I had just been. I know that as a missionary I will be rejected just as Christ was rejected. The Light that I stand as a representative and witness of is unfamiliar to many people.
I know that God knows me personally. I know that He knows you personally. The Lord came to the earth to atone for our sins, but also to suffer our sorrows. He came to enable us to return to our Heavenly Father, but also so that we would never walk through this life alone. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
I love you, talk to you soon!!!
