Do you know about the Savior?

Dear Family

   It has been a great Christmas season this year! I was so happy to be with each of you as we celebrated the birth of the Savior Jesus Christ. To be around family and feel the love we share for each other is simply the best feeling life can give. As I see my life pass by I am always reminded that the life is only a short reflection of the eternal lives we are all apart of. This life is about family and the love we have for each other, but it doesn't end here on this earth. The Savior Jesus Christ has prepared the way for each of us to be together for all eternity and it is through his love that this has been made possible. It is through his atonement that we can be saved from all pain and sin and be made clean so that we may join him and our Father in Heaven in his house for all eternity. To only know about the Savior is wonderful, but to come to know the Savior as we know one another is to become Godly. We must find a way to come to know the Savior personally in this life. As Elder Bednar speaks of in his last conference address, we must exercise faith in him, we must follow him, we must serve him, and we must believe him.

I Love you all so much!

Promise and Testimony

On a future day, “every knee shall bow, and every tongue confess”39 that Jesus is the Christ. On that blessed day, we will know He knows each of us by name. And I witness and promise we can not only know about the Lord but also come to know Him as we exercise faith in, follow, serve, and believe Him.
