Inspiring Short: The Heart of a Child at Christmas | Hugh W. Pinnock
BYU Speeches
In his 1997 devotional, Elder Hugh W. Pinnock encourages us to “seek to retain or reobtain the heart of a child, especially at Christmastime.”
In the spirit of Christmas, 6-year-old Laura writes a touching letter to Santa, selflessly putting her siblings’ joy above her own gifts. Watch the heartwarming events that follow as her gesture touches the heart of someone who reads her letter, reminding us of the genuine love and wonder that comes from having the heart of a child at Christmastime.
