Christmas Advent Calendar - December 8th

The greatest blessings aren't those of getting but those of becoming. Jesus taught:

"Blessed are the poor in spirit who come unto me, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." And again, blessed are all they that mourn, for they shall be comforted. " And blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. " And blessed are all they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled with the Holy Ghost." And blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy." And blessed are all the pure in heart, for they shall see God." And blessed are all the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of god" (3 Ne. 12:3-9).

* Foster peace on earth by not quarreling with your brothers, sisters and other family members.

* "More Holiness Give Me," Hymns, no. 131
