I drove to Vernal this weekend. The sky was a deep blue with hardly a cloud to mar the rich hue. The sun did its best to shine at full capacity despite the January chill. It was a lovely day. At least for the first 80 or so miles. When I approached the top of the switchbacks the valley below was filled with fog. From that vantage point, the view truly was remarkable.

Finding Lasting Peace and Building Eternal Families
by L. Tom Perry
Peace. That’s what most people are after. But this world definitely does not offer peace so where can we find it?
This Time of Year
There is something,
something in the air.
It comes this time of year,
it can be felt everywhere.
Faith with Works Brings Forth Miracles
November 19, 2014
NJ could picture her mom dancing and chanting to the Little Engine that Could on her way to the testing center. It brought a smile to her face. She remembered all throughout her school days how her mom would chant to her, “I think you can, I think you can!” for encouragement. NJ found a sudden burst of energy. She studied long and hard for this test and was ready for any question thrown at her!

I can wipe away your tears
But I can’t heal your broken heart
The Miracle of Faith
by Gordon B. Hinckley
For the past three weeks I have shared the counsel and words of a prophet of God immediately following the 9/11 attacks. But what did he say 6 months ealier and five months prior to the attacks?
I was curious so I looked it up and will share.
(It’s all about faith)

The Transforming Power of Faith and Character
by Richard G. Scott
This was actually not the talk I was looking for. But after reading it I thought, “oooh, this is good too.” So I’m sharing this one.
The Key
The prophet said,
the great test
we learn in life
is to obey
that will bring us rest.
Who am I to argue?
I do agree
obedience
is the test
and love is the key.

The Call
Enoch received a call
and said, “I am but a lad,
I will fail,
I can’t do that.”
The Lord responded,
“Go forth and do.
Trust in me
and I will be with you.”
