Our families may be imperfect, but they give us the best chance of feeling the love we felt in heaven. This Christmas, as we focus on the Savior, we can also improve our relationships with those who are closest to us.

Because of Jesus Christ, the grave has no victory. And because of Christ, we can be redeemed if we will come unto Him and repent.

The spirit of Christmas, or the spirit of Christ, encourages us to love our fellow men. It encourages generosity, joy, forgiveness, repentance, gratitude, and Godliness. As we embrace the spirit of Christmas, we embrace the spirit of Christ.

The Lord will warn and forewarn us against the challenges of our day. The Family: A Proclamation to the World is one such warning.

Because of Christ, our entire beings can rejoice. We should proclaim the good news to all mankind. Christ died to save us all, if we will but repent and come unto Him.

The Church of Jesus Christ is a living church. Prophets, seers, and revelators lead the church according the Lord’s directions. Policy and procedure may change, but the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ is constant.

Christ is “the light and the life of the world” (3 Nephi 9:18). We learn that we should look to His light as an example (3 Nephi 18:16) and that His work is the light we should hold up in our own lives to share with those around us (3 Nephi 18:24). We can also share this light with our ancestors through proxy temple work.

This Christmas, let us remember the example and teachings of our Savior and do what we can to serve and help our brothers and sisters.

When we have the Christmas spirit, we remember the Savior, whose birth we commemorate on December 25. We remember the tidings of great joy, the spirit of giving, the spirit of obedience, the spirit of gratitude, and the gift of love.

This Christmas season, let us remember "The Nativity Song" and put in the effort needed to draw spiritually closer to the Savior.
