Christmas!

"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."
(Luke 2:10-11)

"And it came to pass that there was no darkness in all that night, but it was as light as though it was mid-day. And it came to pass that the sun did rise in the morning again, according to its proper order; and they knew that it was the day that the Lord should be born, because of the sign which had been given."
(3 Nephi 1:19)

I am so grateful for the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ and for His life and atonement! As I read the scripture in 3 Nephi, it hit me that I don't think that it was coincidence that  a couple of the signs of the Savior's birth (in the Americas) had to do with light, (the day and the night and the day with no darkness and the new star) as He is the Light of the World. I believe it is symbolic of the Light of the World entering into this world.

Let us strive to remember the Savior and His birth and life and atonement this Christmas season and always!
