Your Mind is a Cupboard

I remember Thomas S. Monson saying the following quote years ago in General Conference. Let us remember this in our daily lives.

I like this thought: “Your mind is a cupboard, and you stock the shelves.” Let us make certain that our cupboard shelves, and those of our family members, are stocked with the things which will provide safety to our souls and enable us to return to our Father in Heaven. Such shelves could well be stocked with gospel scholarship, faith, prayer, love, service, obedience, example, and kindness." 

(Thomas S. Monson, "Constant Truths for Changing Times", April 2005)

The Rock of Our Redeemer

This is a scripture found in the Book of Mormon and in this lesson. 

Come, Follow Me August 17-23 (Helaman 1-6)

Helaman 5:12

We Are Not Alone & Bear Up Their Burdens with Ease

“We are not and never need be alone. We can press forward in our daily lives with heavenly help.” (Elder David A. Bednar, “Bear Up Their Burdens with Ease", April 2014)

The story in this General Conference talk is one that I remember in Elder Bednar's talk. We are never alone. Our Heavenly Father will help us in all that we do. Pray, prayer is the answer. It may not come right away but it will sometime even it it takes years. Let us learn from those experiences we may have when our answers to our prayers do come. If it doesn't then there is a reason. Let us be strong and remember Our Heavenly Father loves us no matter what.

Families Can Be Together Forever

Our Heavenly Father loves us so very much that he gave us a way that families can be forever. I know I can be with my family forever and ever. This is one of my favorite children's songs.

Integrity: Psalm 26: 1, 11

Psalm 26
