• We can build up and express love during the holidays by reaching out to loved ones, forgiving those who have hurt us, performing acts of service, sharing our blessings, and praying for the ability to love unconditionally.
• Christmas is a time to commit to making love the cornerstone of our lives, allowing our actions and choices to be guided by compassion and a desire to spread joy and hope.
