This is one of my most favorite times of the year.
I love the snow, the Christmas trees, the lights, the treats, and most of all spending time with family.
This is the time of year to really reflect how absolutely amazing He is and was here on earth.
Christ is our Savior, our Redeemer, our Healer, our Shepard, and so much more.
Having him come to earth those so many years ago is such a blessing.
Every year, at Christmas time, my testimony grows.
I love hearing and acting out the nativity scene with the cousins, and to hear the scriptures of His birth.
I love the tradition of going to the Forgotten Carols with my family.
That play is one of the best and most amazing testimony builders.
My heart hurt the morning my mom woke me up and told me the Provo Tabernacle was burning down.
I turned on the news to watch the many firefighters and trucks trying to put the fire out.
It was such a historical building it is so sad to see it gone.
All the beautiful pictures inside were burned.
And then I saw this one
It is a picture of Provo Firefighters looking at a painting of Christ that was burned in the fire. The fire from the Tabernacle burned the entire image except the image of Christ in the center.
After seeing this picture for the first time, my testimony grew.
I know, after seeing that picture, the church is true, and I am so beyond grateful to be part of it.
And just like this picture, someday, Christ will come to this earth again.
