Share them with someone close to you.” Today I am sharing four scriptures that represent me. So this one is a little obvious. When I was discussing what scriptures to use this morning at breakfast with my older […]

In this season where our hearts are filled with gratitude to God it naturally follows that we have an increased desire to serve Him and His children. One of the names Jesus Christ called himself was “Light of the World.” “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he […]

November is my favorite month of the year. It appeals to my senses: pumpkin everything, campfires, crisp fall air, apple butter, golds and maroons and deep purples. Gratitude is brought to the forefront and with it, remembering. Spencer W. Kimball taught that the word ‘remember’ was the most important word in the dictionary. There are […]
