Bread: The Bread Of Life
Just as the Babe of Bethlehem was born, humble and low, then
exalted to glory, common, everyday, humble bread has been
raised to a lofty station.
Consider that:
Bethlehem, where He was born, means “House of Bread”.
His first temptation in the wilderness was “to turn stones to
bread”.
Instead, He turned temptation into teaching: “Man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth forth
from the mouth of God.”
As an example to us, He prayed to the Father in the manner:
“Gives us this day our daily bread”.
He fed five thousand disciples with only 5 barley loaves, then
seizing the opportunity, declared to them on the following
day, “I am the living bread come down from Heaven.”
Embodied in the bread, He broke with His apostles in the
memory of His sacrifice and His Father’s gift to the world.
Bread-this highest and lowest food can serve as a meal for
insects or a sparrow, as well as a Sabbath feast for priests and
prophets.
Bread-this most common food was chosen by the Savior
Himself as a remembrance of the most uncommon life.
Bread-a symbol of His birth and death; reminder of His
temptations and teaching; a sacred memory of His sacrifice
and sufferings.
My Christmas wish is that this small gift and these great thoughts
will help you feel the spirit of Christ, and remember Him and all
that He has done for us through this beautiful Christmas Season.

M&M Christmas Story

M&M Christmas StoryAs you hold these candies in your hand and turn them, you will see....
The M becomes a W, an E, and then a 3.
They tell the Christmas story it's one I'm sure you know.
It took place in a stable a long, long time ago.
The E is for the East where the star shone oh so bright.
The M is for the Manger where the baby Jesus slept that night.
The 3 is for the Wiseman bearing gifts, they say they came.
W is for Worship, Hallelujah Praise to His name.
So as you eat these candies or share them with a friend,
Remember the meaning of Christmas,
Remember the meaning of Christmas,
it's a love story that never ends Merry Christmas
