There is nothing that we are enduring that Jesus does not understand, and He waits for us to go to our Heavenly Father in prayer. If we will be obedient and if we are diligent, our prayers will be answered, our problems will diminish, our fears will dissipate, light will come upon us, the darkness of despair will be dispersed, and we will be close to the Lord.

The gift of the Holy Ghost, given to us when we are confirmed, gives us the ability to discern the difference between the giving ways of the kingdom of God and the taking practices of the world.

As our understanding of obedience deepens, we recognize the essential role of agency.

As I recognized the beauty of the earth, I knew that my Heavenly Father loved me.

When we understand our baptismal covenant and the gift of the Holy Ghost, it will change our lives and will establish our total allegiance to the kingdom of God.

Too often we pray to have patience, but we want it right now!

We were not sent by Father in Heaven just to be born. We were sent to endure and return to Him with honor.
