Charity Through a Coat

Christmas is one of my favorite times of year. Why? Because of a lot of reasons. One of which is people are more giving because they are remembering Christ, their Savior. The world seems like a more kind and happier place. It is filled with the Christmas spirit, or love. This love leads us to be more charitable. Charity is, according to Moroni 7:47, the pure love of Christ.

Christ loves each of us so much, individually. He died for each of us individually. He suffered for each of us individually. We are counselled in Ephesians 5:1-2, "Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour." This is saying we need to love others as Christ has shown love for us by giving of His life.

The following video is of a boy who had this charity. He did something nice for someone else. With Christmas coming, what nice, charitable things can we do to give as a gift to Christ and help our fellowman?
