Even the things we regard at the time as annoying will eventually seem to pass.
As a little child my fondest memory is the times I ran around as a little child, may not seem fond at the time, especially if it involved being forced to sit for hours or being spanked, but they will be the most dear.
God loves everyone so much, it is hard to feel that way about a guy with tatooes on his face, but he is loved as much as the queen of England.
There are Angels literally among you.
Spirit of Elijah is the same Holy Ghost.
Think about what you would do to make sure your children were not lost. You can help others. Reunite their families.
Heavenly father has a plan for others as much as he does for us. And sometimes we are forced into a difficult situation for us, but if we chose the right we will bless everyone the way he wants.
Out hunting geese... we were not allowed to shoot Canadians.
No matter what you struggle with the Lord is just waiting to bless you, example of paying tithing when you have many bills. Then, somehow things will work out to allow you to do the one commandment that Is hard for you.
Although testimony is very simple, it runs very deep.
The Book of Mormon broadens our understanding of the Doctrine of the gospel.
In the book of Mormon shows us the pattern to prepare for the second comming of Christ.
Lds.org scriptures, study helps, one is guide to scripturbes, nice condensed version of what you need to k now and then another is Adjustments.
Scriptures.byu.edu tells all things that have been said about a given scripture.
"RUN TO THE SCRIPTURES" when we need help.
Study your scriptures until you feel like Nephi when he claimed that he hungered to read...
Be an example and a light, it is a commandment.
Matthew 5:16
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Your language is a mark of your intelligence
Ephesians 4:1
Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearer)
God sees us daily but we only see his help through others.
I asked my kids what faith even was, everybody talks about it. It is a hope.
But more than hope. Donuts cannot be recreated just by hope, cause I really REALLY hope for doughnuts.
Purity is important, too.
We get our light from Christ, and it is important to share it with others. At times the one we share with will share with us, when we need it. Like Liz Brewer who when a boy asked her out, she said no. I asked why not. He was such a good catch for her. She told me matter-of-factly that he could not take her to the temple! Admittedly, she had been baptized, but I figured it was just peer pressure. I did not think much of it. Apparently she had, and was an example to me how being an example to others can come full circle.
