It's a Wonderful Life

It truly, truly is a wonderful life!! Finally finals are over and I get to really have a Christmas break! With the beautiful Holiday less than a week away, there is so much to do! My family gets to host our annual Christmas Eve party, which means a week of baking and cleaning, and I still have to get everyone's presents!!

But I think the best part about finally being done with the Fall 2011 Semester, is that I can slow down and really concentrate on what this holiday is all about. The birth of my Savior, Jesus Christ and what he was sent to Earth to do. Without the Atonement, life could not be so wonderful. With the Atonement, death lost its sting, and I know that I will be saved if I do the things I am supposed to. As I continue through this holiday season, I hope that every day I will remember that if nothing else turns out right, or I begin to stress out because my Christmas vision isn't happening, I still have the sweetest and most blessed life ever because God is with me. Nothing else matters but His love and sacrifice and if I can always remember this, Christmas will ALWAYS be a beautiful time of year despite the commercialism and hectic craze! :)
