While reading my scriptures recently, I started considering how many times an angel or the Lord asks a disciple of Jesus Christ to return to a location to prepare, call and proclaim the gospel. How does this apply to you and me? Join me today as I share some scriptures about individuals who returned to a land and what it has to do with you and me.

Why is Dickens’ "Christmas Carol" so popular? Why is it ever new? I personally feel it is inspired of God. It brings out the best within human nature. It gives hope. It motivates change. We can turn from the paths which would lead us down and, with a song in our hearts, follow a star and walk toward the light. We can quicken our step, bolster our courage, and bask in the sunlight of truth. We can hear more clearly the laughter of little children. We can dry the tear of the weeping. We can comfort the dying by sharing the promise of eternal life. If we lift one weary hand which hangs down, if we bring peace to one struggling soul, if we give as did the Master, we can—by showing the way—become a guiding star for some lost mariner.”

― Thomas S. Monson
