Inspiration for our times- treasures of knowledge and wisdom

Wisdom Song - Laura Woodley Osman

Our Creator expects His children everywhere to educate themselves. He issued a commandment: “Seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom; seek learning, even by study and also by faith.” (D&C 88:118.) And He assures us that knowledge acquired here will be ours forever. (See D&C 130:18–19.)

Where Is Wisdom? by Russell M. Nelson

Wisdom is to be found in pure intelligence—in that divine light which can guide people in all countries, all climes, and all continents. The Lord has promised that “a light shall break forth among them that sit in darkness, and it shall be the fulness of my gospel.” (D&C 45:28.)

Inspiration for our times- courage

Listen to Courage by Aloha

 

read: Psalm 31

"The distressing emotion of fear arises because of impending danger, uncertainty, or pain and through experiences that are unexpected, sometimes sudden, and likely to produce a negative outcome. In our daily lives, endless reports of criminal violence, famine, wars, corruption, terrorism, declining values, disease, and the destructive forces of nature can engender fear and apprehension. Surely we live in the season foretold by the Lord "And in that day ... the whole earth shall be in commotion, and men's hearts shall fail them"...fear is dispelled through a correct knowledge of and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. "

The rocks are some I have painted and put around town to help in these challenging times. If you walk by my house you may find one to pick up and take home.

Inspiration for our times- the path

“We read in Proverbs the admonition, ‘Ponder the path of thy feet.’ As we do, we will have the faith, even the desire, to walk the path which Jesus walked. We will have no doubt that we are on a path which our Father would have us follow. The Savior’s example provides a framework for everything that we do, and His words provide an unfailing guide. His path will take us safely home.”
