THE THOUGHT WAS THIS:
When I was young, I wasn't 68
I could walk without a limp;
I had no shoulder pain.
I could read a line through twice
And quote it back again.
I could work for endless hours
And hardly stop to breathe.
And things that now I cannot do
I mastered then with ease.
If I could now turn back the years,
If that were mine to choose,
I would not barter age for youth,
I'd have too much to lose.
I am quite content to move ahead,
To yield my youth, however grand.
The thing I'd lose if I went back
Is what I understand.
Each of us must stay in condition to respond to inspiration and the promptings of the Holy Ghost.
The Lord has a way of pouring pure intelligence into our minds to prompt us, to guide us, to teach us, and to warn us. Each son or daughter of God can know the things they need to know instantly. Learn to receive and act on inspiration and revelation.
GOOD THOUGHTS
SHARING OUR THOUGHTS, FEELINGS, AND DESIRES WITH GOD THROUGH SINCERE AND HEARTFELT PRAYER SHOULD BECOME TO EACH OF US AS IMPORTANT AND NATURAL AS BREATHING AND EATING.
SEARCHING, PONDERING, AND APPLYING THE WORDS OF CHRIST AS TAUGHT IN THE SCRIPTURES WILL BRING WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE BEYOND OUR MORTAL UNDERSTANDING.
ONE OF THE GREATEST BLESSINGS WE CAN OFFER TO THE WORLD IS THE POWER OF A CHRIST-CENTERED HOME WHERE THE GOSPEL IS TAUGHT, COVENANTS ARE KEPT, AND LOVE ABOUNDS.
SEARCHING, PONDERING, AND APPLYING THE WORDS OF CHRIST AS TAUGHT IN THE SCRIPTURES WILL BRING WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE BEYOND OUR MORTAL UNDERSTANDING.
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT STEPS WE CAN TAKE TO STRENGTHEN OUR LIVES AND REMAIN FIRMLY ATTACHED TO THE FOUNDATION OF THE SAVIOR IS TO WORTHILY PARTAKE OF THE SACRAMENT EACH WEEK.
WORTHILY PARTAKING OF THE SACRAMENT STRENGTHENS OUR PERSONAL CONNECTION TO THE FOUNDATION ROCK, EVEN TO JESUS CHRIST
ONE OF THE GREATEST BLESSINGS WE CAN OFFER TO THE WORLD IS THE POWER OF A CHRIST-CENTERED HOME WHERE THE GOSPEL IS TAUGHT, COVENANTS ARE KEPT, AND LOVE ABOUNDS.
Obedience to the law of chastity will increase our happiness in mortality and make possible our progress in eternity.
simply stated, there are lessons we must learn and experiences we must have.
As we seek to increase our love for God and strive to love our neighbor, the light of the gospel will surround and uplift us.
