JOY IN THE JOURNEY

"In nothing doth man offend God,
or against none is his wrath kindled,
save those who confess not his hand in all things
(D&C 59:21).


May we be found among those
who give our thanks to our Heavenly Father.

If ingratitude be numbered among the serious sins,
then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues.
"Despite the changes which come into our lives
and with gratitude in our hearts,

may we fill our days-
as much as we can-
with those things which matter most.

May we cherish those we hold dear
and express our love to them in word and in deed."


"Let us follow Him.
Let us emulate his example.

Let us obey His word.
By so doing, we give Him the divine gift of gratitude.
"Brothers and sisters, my sincere prayer is
that we may adapt to the changes in our lives,
that we may realize what is most important,
that we may express our gratitude always and thus
find joy in the journey."

Pres. Monson, Oct. 2008 p 87
