Ponderize





Create a place

For your thoughts to go

To oft embrace

The spirit in flow




Devin G. Durrant


So what does it mean to ponderize? I like to say it’s a combination of 80 percent extended pondering and 20 percent memorization.


However, I pondered time and time again the key elements of the verse and where to find it. But the best part of the process was I had a higher place for my thoughts to go. Throughout the week I pictured the Savior saying encouraging words to me. That image touched my heart and served to inspire me to want to do “works of righteousness.” That is what can happen when we “look unto [Christ] in every thought.”7https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2015/10/my-heart-pondereth-them-continually?lang=eng
I thought a great place to start is to pick a scripture on Ponder
