Footsteps: Christmas shines with lights...and trees and houses and streets everywhere. As we recall the bright star over Bethlehem, let us remember the source of ALL Light.
“He that ascended up on high, as also He descended below all things, in that he comprehended all things, that He might be in all and through all things the light of truth; Which truth shineth. This is the light of Christ. As also He is the sun, and the light of the sun, and the power thereof by which it was made...and the light which shineth, which giveth you light, is through Him who enlighteneth your eyes, which is the same light that quickeneth your understandings. Which light proceeded forth from the presence of God to fill the immensity of space-the light which is in all things, which giveth life to all things, which is the law by which all things are governed...” (D&C 88:6-7,11-13)
Walking: Today, stand up for the right thing even if those around you do not
Songs: Follow the Light by Tyler Castleton
Follow the Light
If only we were gathered there
When heaven and earth sang as one
And the new star shone so bright
The cries of the newborn child
Rose up like a sacred hymn
And burned within each humble heart
In the fields of Bethlehem
Follow that voice, follow that star
Follow that lamp from wherever you are
Follow His words and follow your heart
Walk in his ways and follow the light
If only we had heard his voice
Command the seas, “Peace be still”
And bid the man, “Arise and walk.”
And heard the prayers that blessed and healed
Felt the promise and the power
In the words, “Come follow me.”
That burned within each humble heart
In the hills of Galilee
Each new day I’ll raise my voice
And praise his holy name
Offer up my heart to him in gratitude and faith
