DAY 16

#LightTheWorld Day 16 – Jesus Showed Compassion Jesus Christ was infinitely more caring and compassionate than any other being this world has ever seen. It felt really good to focus on this attribute of Christ and try our best to emulate Him today. Today, we only left encouraging and positive messages on social media. WeContinue reading “DAY 16”

DAY 15

#LightTheWorld Day 15 – Jesus Worshipped through Song I’m not a singer. I enjoy my music, but I most certainly will not sing in public. So, instead of going caroling or sharing my favorite Christmas songs or hymns with anyone, we went about this day a little different. We listened to Christmas music all day.Continue reading “DAY 15”

DAY 14

#LightTheWorld Day 14 – “Jesus Clothed the Naked” Matthew 25:38-40 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you,Continue reading “DAY 14”

DAY 13

#LightTheWorld Day 13 – Jesus Showed Humility One of my favorite attributes that Christ consistently displayed during His mortal ministry was that of humility.

#LightTheWorld Day 11 – Jesus Ministered to Children It is crazy to think that Christmas is only two weeks away. I am more excited for this Christmas than any other before. Not for the typical reasons of presents and partying, but because this is the first Christmas that my oldest daughter, Avery Sue, really knowsContinue reading “Day 11”

Day 10

#LightTheWorld Day 10 – Jesus Helped People Walk Jesus does not just invite us to follow Him—He gives us the power to do it. In His day, He healed those who could not walk and helped them rise physically and spiritually. Today, we live in a world that offers more ways than ever to assistContinue reading “Day 10”

DAY 9

#LightTheWorld Day 9 – Jesus Visited the Lonely Because on the road with my brothers all day today, Summer and the girls picked up my slack and took over today. My lovely wife and beautiful daughters took the time to go down to St. George and visit my grandma. My grandma has been a widowContinue reading “DAY 9”

DAY 8

#LightTheWorld Day 8 – Jesus Prayed for Others Some of Jesus Christ’s most enduring words weren’t directed to His disciples but rather to His Father in Heaven as He prayed on behalf of others. As we seek to improve our prayers, we can look to Christ as our ultimate example. I already spent some timeContinue reading “DAY 8”
