Today I was looking over my notes from the last conference session (why do they seem so far apart now that I'm older?), and I was so excited to come across the pencil sketches for some graphics! I hope they will inspire you too.

Light the World Initiative Day 25 "Follow Jesus"

The disciples followed Jesus, and so can you!

Turn some of the last 25 day's ideas in to New Year Resolutions, Find a picture of Jesus that you love and hang it in your home, or Devote a whole day to selfless service!

I'd like to share with you my favorite painting of Christ:

As long as I can remember, this has been my favorite! I've seen it painted inside of some of the temples that I have been in. It's just breath taking.

Thank you everyone, for following along this series with me. I apologize for the hiccups in posting, thank you Jane, for helping me stay on track. 

I hope there are some images in it that you can use.

Merry Christmas Brother's and Sisters! I hope that you have a peaceful and loving holiday, and that you feel close to Heavenly Father. He loves you!

Sending you a hug from Utah!

Light the World Initiative Day 24 " Care for your loved ones"

Jesus cared for His loved ones, and so can you!

Plan a special Christmas Eve program for your family and friends, Leave an anonymous gift for a family member, Enter all of your friend's birthdays in to your phone!

Every Christmas Eve we have my brother's families over (My sister lives too far away), and we have dinner together. This year, our family has grown enough that we don't all fit in my house anymore! We will be having breakfast at our church house, where we can visit, and have plenty of room. It's a little different, but it's the time together that is important.

Happy Christmas Eve my friends!

Light the World Initiative Day 23 "Be a Peacemaker"

Jesus was a peacemaker and you can be too!

Make a long overdue apology, make a donation to refugees, or say nice things behind peoples backs!

I think I can handle these too!

GO do good today my friends!!

Light the World Initiative Day 22 "Show Gratitude"

Jesus Showed Gratitude and So Can You

Give a simple gift to your mail carrier, Say a sincere prayer of gratitude, or Write a thank you letter to someone who has positively impacted your life.

I'm pretty sure a little gift is the easiest for me, but I'm going to make an effort to do all three of these today. I have much to be grateful for. And I have many people Heavenly Father has placed in my life to help me, and I love them so much!

P.S.

I'm very grateful for all of you, and the support you have given me the last 6 years!

Light the World Initiative Day 21 " Forgive Others"

Jesus Forgave Others and So Can You

Call a family member you haven't talked to for a while, Make a list of your grudges and let them go, Be kind instead of Right for a day.

Let it go.... let it go.... 

I don't know about you, but forgiving others isn't that difficult for me, I have a harder time forgiving myself. I'm gonna work on that one ;)

Light the World Initiative Day 20 "See potential in others"

Jesus Saw Potential in Others and So Can You

Be a mentor or tutor someone, Take a child to work with you and let them help you, or Cheer someone on at a sporting event or a cultural event!

So sorry to all the Utes fans out there! My dad was a big BYU fan. For those of you not in Utah, it's the big college rivalry here ;) When the Y would play, at our house, the world would stop... we didn't make a peep, stand in front of the TV, or try to talk to my pop, lol. 

Thinking of the Mahe family, and praying for the comfort of Heavenly Father for them and the team.

Light the World Initiative Day 19 "Calm the Storm"

"Jesus calmed the storm and so can you"

Find ways to help people around the world through charity, review emergency response plans in your  area, or give the gift of a 72 hour kit to your families!

My oldest brother is in charge of the emergency preparedness in his ward. He is HUGE on 72 hour kits ( he's giving them to his married kids for Christmas... shhhhh) This one made me smile thinking of him. Do you have a 72 hour kit? I'm afraid mine is more than a panic kit, lol. When the Ebola outbreak happened, I went in to full panic mode. I think I bout 4 bottles of all the medication at Costco as well as six cases of water, and some candles.

Time to get prepared my friends.

Light the World Initiative Day 18 "Honor the Sabbath"

"Jesus honored the Sabbath and so can you"

Turn off your phone for a few hours today, Attend a church service, or visit a family member!

Nothing says a peaceful and honored Sunday, than a turned off cell phone! It's a good day to re-charge your spiritual batteries.

Light the World Initiative Day 17 "Care for your Mother"

"Jesus cared for His Mother, and so can you"

Call your mom, make a list of all she has done for you and send it to her, or identify a motherly figure in your life and take her flowers...

Probably ought to all of these <3

Light the World Initiative Day 16 "Show Compassion"

"Jesus showed compassion, and so can you!"

Participate in a "Sub for Santa" program, leave encouraging comments on social media, or pray for an opportunity to show someone compassion today!

Every year, my family helps out at least one family in need at Christmas time. Sometimes our children are involved, and sometimes they are not. Most of the fun is when its an anonymous gift!

I remember a time when we were the ones on that end of the giving... I've never forgotten the feeling of knowing that someone cared so much for us, that they would go so far out of their way to provide Christmas for our children. 

Make an effort today to be someone's blessing.
