wise men still seek Him.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace good will toward men. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this things which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

Look to the Light

christmas is in twelve days.

twelve.

i remember a year ago at this time i was finishing my first semester of college. 

my, how things have changed. 

i have so much to be grateful for this christmas season, and just in general.

i know that my life has been blessed and things have been so much easier because of a Savior and Heavenly Father, who i know love me and know me and know what i am capable of.

i know i wouldn't have been tested beyond my strength and abilities. i am excited to live the life that They have planned for me. i feel like i was given a second chance. 

and i plan on taking advantage of that chance and making the most of it.

i saw this video, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

we all can be given a second chance, and i know that.

i hope that you and i can remember the real reason for this season and to "look to the light".
