Monday Memo


I loved the sweet testimonies I heard yesterday in Sacrament Meeting and in our Relief Society Meeting. Dear Kristen, I was moved by your sweet tears. Your tender heart reminded me of a testimony shared by a dear friend of mine. She proclaimed "I stand here today a grateful and blessed woman. Jesus Christ is our Savior and His Atonement is for all of us. All the good things in our life are made better and permanent because of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Those things which aren't so good are made temporary because of the gospel of Jesus Christ."

All the good things made better, and the not so good are made temporary because of the Atonement and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Yes, it truly does bless us all, and for that I am grateful.
