“There is no better time than now, this very Christmas season, for all of us to rededicate ourselves to the principles taught by Jesus the Christ. It is the time to love the Lord, our God, with all our heart—and our neighbors as ourselves.”
"My brothers and sisters, may the spirit of love, which comes at Christmastime, fill our homes and our lives, and linger there long after the tree is down, and the lights are put away for another year."
- Thomas S. Monson
Love
"The spirit of Christmas is the spirit of love and of generosity and of goodness. It illuminates the picture window of the soul, and we look out upon the world's busy life and become more interested in people than in things."
- Thomas S. Monson
Love
"Christmas is the spirit of giving without a thought of getting. It is happiness because we see joy in people. It is forgetting self and finding time for others. It’s discarding the meaningless and stressing the true values."
- Thomas S. Monson
Compassion
"If you want to give light to others you have to glow yourself."
- Thomas S. Monson
Inspiration
"Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval."
- Thomas S. Monson
Faith
"In a sense, your small and simple sacrifices are the dots of daily living that make up the masterpiece painting of your life. You may not see how the dots connect now, and you don’t need to yet. Simply have faith enough for the moment you are living in now. Trust in God, and ‘out of small things [will come] that which is great’ [Doctrine and Covenants 64:33]."
- Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf
