There is Beauty

There are beautiful experiences to have, beautiful blessings to enjoy, peace to feel, love to give, souls to find, knowledge to gain, help to give, children to teach, relationships to strengthen, talents to develope and enjoy. Beauty is around us, in a kind smile from a stranger, in a dear friend who somehow new what you needed, in the children, in families, in the people who show genuine concern for another. The Spirit of God gives the most beautiful feelings. The earth and sky are beautiful. There is Beauty all around.

General Con. Fall 2009

"I am convinced that there is no simple formula or technique that would immediately allow you to master the ability to be guided by the voice of the Spirit. Our Father expects you to learn how to obtain that divine help by exercising faith in Him and His Holy Son, Jesus Christ. Were you to receive inspired guidance just for the asking, you would become weak and ever more dependent on Them. They know that essential personal growth will come as you struggle to learn how to be led by the Spirit."
"I witness that as you gain experience and success in being guided by the Spirit, your confidence in the impressions you feel can become more certain than your dependence on what you see or hear."

-Elder Richard G. Scott Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
