"Take Time to be Holy"

One of the sweet treats we have been enjoying is "Dove Promises" our daughters brought when they came to visit. One message we often read is "Hit snooze ... x5".  We are rarely still asleep for the alarm to sound even once. This morning was one of the rare times we waited to get up until the alarm sounded.

There is a LDS Charities project we were invited to this week which we had to decline. There will be a truckload of rice, fish sauce, and other items delivered and distributed in Kampong Thom on Wednesday or Thursday. We are feeling the deadline creeping closer and still have projects we need to complete, not to say anything of being double booked on Wednesday already. There still may be another rice distribution we can participate in in a couple of weeks.

In a message from our home bishop he shared words of a hymn, "Take Time To Be Holy" by William D. Longstaff.

Take time to be Holy, speak oft with thy Lord.
Abide in Him always and feed on His word.
Make friends of God’s children, help those who are weak, Forgetting in nothing His blessing to seek.

 We encourage each of you to take time to speak with the Lord often, read His words, and recognize His blessings in your life. Throughout this Christmas Season remember Christ and all He has done for each of us. This is what makes this "The most wonderful time of the year!"
