Hello and welcome back my friends! My name is Spencer Charles also known as Latterdayhelp and I will be sharing this week some things I enjoyed about Come Follow Me. Let’s dive in!
Suggestion: when using The Come Follow Me book, use this page for my commentary and overview. You will see a quote from the Come Follow Me and my comments below it. First, look at the quote below and when it appears in the book, read my commentary below the quote. Repeat until you finish the Come Follow Me for this week. Enjoy!!!
“But most of all, we are blessed by their powerful testimonies of Jesus Christ—at Christmastime and throughout the year. These are more than just stirring words of skilled writers or public speakers or insights from scriptural experts. They are the words of God’s chosen, called, and authorized “special witnesses of the name of Christ in all the world” (Doctrine and Covenants 107:23).”
We are very blessed by the testimony’s of Christ during the time of His birth and at times throughout the year. I always love hearing the testimony’s of people from their experiences with Christ.
“Christmas is a time both to look back on the day Jesus Christ was born and to look forward to the day He will come again.”
I hope you all will think about Christ’s mission this Christmas. He was born into the world to save us from our sins. When He returns He will destroy all who did not accept His glorious sacrifice to repent.
“How is He your light, life, and hope? What other attributes or titles of the Savior mean the most to you?”
I love this!!! Think about how Christ has been your light through the past year and how much He means to you. He truly lights up the world.
“How might your family follow the Savior’s example of service this Christmas? How will you spread “peace and goodwill” in your family and community? How can you help bring “healing [to] the sick”? You may find ideas in some of the Christmas videos on the Gospel Media app or Gospel Media library (medialibrary.ChurchofJesusChrist.org). (For ideas, see Christmas.ComeuntoChrist.org.)”
Christmas isn’t just a time of reviving, it is a time of giving! Plan out what you will do this Christmas to give to others.
“Your family could open the presents on Christmas day or throughout the week and read scriptures related to each one. Here are some possible scriptures, though your family may find many others: Luke 2:10–14; 1 Peter 2:21; Mosiah 3:8; Alma 11:42–43; Doctrine and Covenants 18:10–12. You could also sing a song about the Savior, such as “He Sent His Son” (Children’s Songbook, 34–35), to find other gifts that come from Him.”
I just had to include this because it is an amazing suggestion.
I hope you have a good Christmas and I will see you all soon!
