The Everlasting Gift

I am grateful for this time of year and for the opportunity to represent the greatest Man who walked upon this earth. As Isaiah preached in the Old Testament and Book of Mormon (Isaiah 7:14/2 Nefi 19:6), Jesus Christ was the greatest gift we could have and have received, and as Heavenly Father sent His Only Begotten Son as an eternal gift, Jesus Christ came to give all mankind the most important eternal gift (3 Nefi 27:13-14), and I am blessed enough to deliver that gift to many people, families, and homes every day! It made me think of kids who sometimes get gifts in a huge box, and when opening, discover another box just a bit smaller, and the pattern continues unwrapping or opening smaller boxes. Similarly, Jesus Christ was given to us as the greatest gift, and now He offers to us an endless number of gifts, whether it be forgiveness, love, happiness, or an infinite list. I love my Savior and hope that you can feel and be witnesses to my conviction and desire to serve Him, until I can personally meet Him some day.
With love and care,

P.s. Reflect and think about the gifts that we receive from Jesus Christ. (there is no end, tried it with my comp last night)
