Unfair
@DaleGRenlund
I testify that the Savior lives. He understands unfairness. The marks in the palms of His hands continually remind Him of you and your circumstances. He ministers to you in all your distress. https://pic.twitter.com/X7OUkZPTWR

Signs of the Second Coming Temporal and Spiritual
These troubling times
Aren't going away
Don't be deceived
Signs are coming our way
Wickedness, floods
Turmoil, famines, disease
Earthquakes, fires, storms
Yet, with Christ there is peace
Be not troubled
Anticipate the day
When Christ returns
And death is done away
Prepare your heart
Keep oil in your lamp
The Bridegroom nears
In holy places, stand
How would your life be different if you did not have your covenants?

Trust
Let the shadows come and go
And the wind do as it must
For life's lessons through them grow
As we learn in whom to trust

Fair?
When things become unfair
In humility, turn to God for help
Trust. You will persevere
He will make of you a better self
49 mins ago — Elder Dale G. Renlund: 'Infuriating Unfairness'. Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
Practice Peace
Practice peace
Through Christ's principles of light
Virtues please
And come from choosing what's right
Hope, Healing, and Pure Progess
For hope, healing, and pure progress
That the Lord's mercy can provide
Clear the debris at your address
And invite Him in to reside
Gathering and hauling off debris is a costly ordeal especially in renovations. The church took great care to responsibly sort and dispose of debris from the Salt Lake temple work. Are we not also a temple of God?
“As we listen to the messages that have been carefully prepared by our leaders under the direction of the Holy Ghost, I invite you to pray to identify the debris you should remove from your life so you can become more worthy,” he said.
