You never know
What tomorrow will bring;
Yet, still we'll owe
Thanks for everything!

Thanks for everything!
Studying the gospel is like- Catching a double rainbow; Each drop of wisdom reflects light- Hinting there is more to see and know!

Make Me Clean
Soapy bubbles make me clean
Lift what troubles, what's unseen
But the dirt comes back again
So oft I wash with my trusty friend
Lift what troubles, what's unseen
But the dirt comes back again
So oft I wash with my trusty friend
Take the TIme
Take the time to stare
Into another's eyes
And look for love there
I promise you'll find Christ
Into another's eyes
And look for love there
I promise you'll find Christ
Seek the Lord's Will
Seek the Lord's will
And make it your own
Have faith. Be still
You're never alone!
And make it your own
Have faith. Be still
You're never alone!
What Number Are YOU?
What number are you?
To teach him of Christ?
It takes many to
Bring souls unto light
For some it takes years
For some it's restored
Imagine the cheers
Given by our Lord!
Imagine His patience
And confidence too
In God's plan we're free agents!
His work is NOT through
To teach him of Christ?
It takes many to
Bring souls unto light
For some it takes years
For some it's restored
Imagine the cheers
Given by our Lord!
Imagine His patience
And confidence too
In God's plan we're free agents!
His work is NOT through
He Completes Me
Justice, love, and mercy meet
Truly at the Master's feet Serving Him helps me to see He is what makes life complete A hint of things yet to come Where more of us we will become And to think we are just some Of those restored by the Son I heard someone at church say, "I would not be complete without the lord." He truly puts the finishing touch on our lives with His justice, love, and mercy.. Imagine what that does to families. We are all a restoration project in the makings. Where Justice, Love, and Mercy Meet "That Atonement would achieve complete victory over physical death, unconditionally granting resurrection to every person who has been born or ever will be born into this world. Mercifully it would also provide forgiveness for the personal sins of all, from Adam to the end of the world, conditioned upon repentance and obedience to divine commandments."—Jeffrey R. Holland, "Where Justice, Love, and Mercy Meet" Topics: Atonement |

Making Righteous Choices at the Crossroads of Life
Make righteous choices
At the crossroads of life
The heart rejoices
Because you walk in light
Making Righteous Choices at the Crossroads of Life
"You and I have a plan to guide us in our lives—the eternal plan that was given to us in the premortal world and that will bring us back into the presence of our Heavenly Father. During our mortal probation on earth, we will be tested with enticements and opposition in all things. But if we are obedient…we can attain eternal life."—Robert D. Hales, "Making Righteous Choices at the Crossroads of Life"

Commandments
The Commandments got Jesus in trouble
With the likes of the Pharisees
They weren't sufficiently humble
To understand what God sees

Today's Bath
Just like you can't stay clean from yesterday's bath,
You need to be continually cleansed of sin.
You need to do what keeps you on purity's path
Feeling and inviting the spirit within.
How Can I Be Bored?
How can I be bored
With a mind and a heart?
For there's much I have stored

Suffering
Grandpa, if I suffer more
will you suffer less?
She saw how his pain tore
And would not let him rest.
Eagerly, he answered,
"It doesn't work that way."
But, he spiritually has learned
That God's with him each day.
And, too, there is a pain
That Christ can take away.
Through repentance, we gain
New beginnings, always.
A new heart and clean hands,
A fresh outlook on life...
Though consequences still stand
There's strength that comes through Christ.

Glorious
Even though life's journey
May be fraught with tribulation;
The destination will truly
Be glorious, with salvation.
Our Father's Plan—Big Enough for All His Children
"Even though our journey may be fraught with tribulation, the destination is truly glorious. I rejoice in the great plan of salvation that is big enough for all of our Father in Heaven’s children."—Quentin L. Cook, "Our Father's Plan—Big Enough for All His Children" Topics: Plan of Salvation |
There's Always Time
The world's a scary place.
There's always time for prayer
In these trying times we face
There's safety in God's care

Salvation and Exaltation
"Our Heavenly Father wants husbands and wives to be faithful to each other and to esteem and treat their children as an heritage from the Lord. In such a family we study the scriptures and pray together. And we fix our focus on the temple. There we receive the highest blessings that God has in store for His faithful children."—Russell M.

Hope and Healing
Stuck, I hid what was amiss
In a secret dark abyss
Healing hope in Christ was found
When I turned myself around
And I saw what light I'd missed
Face to Face for Young Single Adults with Elder Jeffrey R ... - LDS.org
I feel like I put a lot of light aside these last few weeks as I took a four-weekend class in addition to the two-night classes.
Going to College is not a spiritual experience for me. I know that institute was the light that kept me on the right path when I got my bachelor's. I love my phone that I could tune out this lecture with Lady Gaga Born This Way (darkly bizarre) and read from Elder Jeffrey R Holland.

Growing in the Spirit
The Holy Ghost doth flood my soul
And awaken my heart to swell
Fresh seeds of thought soon will sow
Where buds of faith do dwell
What triggers that warm flooding feeling as you start to feel the spirit teaching you? Is it love, gratitude, a confirming thought that answers prayer, words you read, hear, the song? It is a renewing and growing experience. It is tender.

O How Great the Plan of Our God
What shall we give Him in return
For the many blessings of care?
That warmth in your heart that does burn
Is His light given for you to share
Doesn't this message thrill you? The poem was inspired by the talk with the same title. O How Great the Plan of Our God"We are eternal beings, without beginning and without end. We have always existed." |
