“We remember that during the meridian of time a bright, particular star shone in the heavens. Wise men followed it and found the Christ child. Today wise men still look heavenward and again see a bright, particular star. It will guide you and me to our opportunities. The burden of the downtrodden will be lifted, the cry of the hungry stilled, the lonely heart comforted. And souls will be saved - yours, theirs and mine." (Elder Thomas S. Monson, 12/27/97 LDS Church News, Deseret News.  1988-1998. Salt Lake City: Deseret News Publishing Company.)
